I See a Darkness - Johnny Cash

Well, you're my friend

And can you see

Many times we've been out drinking

Many times we've shared our thoughts

But did you ever, ever notice,

The kind of thoughts I got

Well you know I have a love,

A love for everyone I know

And you know I have a drive,

To live I won't let go

But can you see this opposition,

Comes rising up sometimes

That is dread full imposition,

Comes blacking in my mind

And then I see a darkness

And then I see a darkness

And then I see a darkness

And then I see a darkness

Did you know how much I love you

There's a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness

Well I hope that someday buddy

We'll have peace in our lives

Together or apart

Alone or with our wives

And we can stop our whoring

And pull the smiles inside

And light it up forever

And never go to sleep

My best unbeaten brother

This isn't all I see

Oh no, I see your darkness

Oh no, I see your darkness

Oh no, I see your darkness

Oh no, I see your darkness

Did you know how much I love you

There's a hope that somehow you

Can save me from this darkness
