Lyrics It wasn't meant to be like this A life for someone else There's a road to the righteous That doesn't lead through hell There's a drop on your eyelid That stays just for him There's a scream in your silence That doesn't let anyone in Now you don't understand why you stayed As you wake in the coffin he made you You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake Now you sink in, it sinks in In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower Devil he waits, the devil he waits for you Now you lay in the ashes Of the house you built Out of old books and matches But you lay there still In the town of black magic And they're out to kill Here's my heart, you can have it And you always will Now you don't understand why you stayed As you wake in the coffin he made you You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake Now you sink in, it sinks in In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower Devil he waits, the devil he waits for you Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh It wasn't meant to be like this A life for someone else There's a road to the righteous That doesn't lead through hell Oh oh oh In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower Devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the top of the tower Devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there But go open your way In the top of the tower Devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
I've seriously watched this about 20 times in the past few days. Beautiful song and very creative video. This song has gotten me through a dark moment a couple of days ago. That's all I will say. Thank you for your beautiful music Charlotte
There's an acoustic version on Sofar London that actually makes this music sound good. She gives a great heartfelt performance on that gig. This commercial version just sounds like a million other radio songs out there. Too bad...
Vennytube I know right. Sad no one is guiding her to greatness. All directors and music producers just wanna get over the gig and get paid. They didn't want to experiment and make something extraordinary. Sad. But I think that's what differentiates great artists from the rest. I don't think this will go far if she keeps to this pop sound. She has potential though.
Darkest Hour Lyrics [Verse 1] It wasn't meant to be like this A life for someone else There's a road to the righteous That doesn't lead through hell There's a drop on your eyelid That stays just for him There's a scream in your silence That doesn't let anyone in [Pre-Chorus] Now you don't understand why you stayed As you wake in the coffin he made you You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake Now you're sinking, it sinks in [Chorus] In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you [Verse 2] Now you lay in the ashes Of the house you built Out of old books and matches But you lay there still In the town of black magic And they're out to kill Here's my heart, you can have it And you always will [Pre-Chorus] Now you don't understand why you stayed As you wake in the coffin he made you You're a stone that's been thrown in the lake Now you're sinking, it sinks in [Chorus] In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you [Post-Chorus] Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh [Bridge] It wasn't meant to be like this A life for someone else There's a road to the righteous That doesn't lead through hell Oh oh oh [Chorus] In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there With no hope anywhere In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you In the darkest of hours We pray, pray for you I know you've been locked up there But go open your way In the top of the tower The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
