I've been walking in the dark
In the silence of the Lamb of God
Never trust a second thought
But I might need a redemption arc
Kingdoms go, and kingdoms come
But you can't spell amateur, without art
I've been walking in the dark
In the silence of the Lamb of God

Every night I prayed and cried and screamed
"My God, why have you forsaken me? "
Now it's c'est la vie, and ever since
I'm done suffocating on your hands

(Oh-oh) Messiah, look at the mess I am
(Oh-oh) Messiah, I'm trying the best I can
(Oh-oh) Messiah, is it all part of the plan?
(Oh-oh) Messiah

But if you are my one and only hope
Won't you hold me close, my Holy Ghost?
The void inside me slowly grows
And from its sights my soul erodes
A lifetime on the narrow way led to only pain
Gallows and a noose
My headbutt is a shallow grave
Hear my hollow prayer
Hallowed be thy name

(Oh-oh) Messiah, look at the mess I am
(Oh-oh) Messiah, I'm trying the best I can
(Oh-oh) Messiah, is it all part of the plan?
(Oh-oh) Messiah
Is it all part of the plan?

I've been walking in the dark
In the silence of the Lamb of God
I've been walking in the dark
In the silence of the Lamb of God
