[Verse 1]
I never knew how much you meant to me
You were the ground I stood on
But oooh I battled for ages
Fought what I thought you were
Suddenly it's clear what I've wasted
I've shut you out and shut you off
Ooo I ripped out the pages
Cut where I thought it would hurt

[Chorus]
Ooh
The darkness and the light
Ooh
The morning and the night

[Verse 2]
I built up an altar to stop you
Stone upon stone in the sand
I laid you down like you were a killer
I stretched out a murderous hand

[Chorus]
Ooh
The darkness and the light
Ooh
The morning and the night
Ooh
My darkness and my light
Ooh
The morning and the night
The darkness and the light
My darkness and my light
