Within Temptation - Shot In The Dark Lyrics

I've been left out alone like a damn criminal
I've been praying for help 'cause I can't take it all
I'm not done,
It's not over.
Now I'm fighting this war since the day of the fall
And I'm desperately holding on to it all
But I'm lost
I'm so damn lost

Oh I wish it was over,
And I wish you were here
Still I'm hoping that somehow

'Cause your soul is on fire
A shot in the dark,
What did they aim for when they missed your heart?
I breathe underwater
It's all in my hands
But what can I do?
Don't let it fall apart
A shot in the dark [2x]

In the blink of an eye
I can see through your eyes
As I'm lying awake I'm still hearing the cries.
And it hurts,
Hurts me so bad.
And I'm wondering why I still fight in this life
'Cause I've lost all my faith in this damn bitter strife
And it's sad
It's so damn sad

Oh I wish it was over,
And I wish you were here
Still I'm hoping that somehow

'Cause your soul is on fire
A shot in the dark,
What did they aim for when they missed your heart?
I breathe underwater
It's all in my hands
But what can I do?
Don't let it fall apart
A shot in the dark [5x]

I feel you are fading away [4x]

'Cause your soul is on fire
A shot in the dark,
What did they aim for when they missed your heart?
I breathe underwater
It's all in my hands
But what can I do?
Don't let it fall apart

Oh, your soul is on fire
A shot in the dark,
What did they aim for when they missed your heart?
I breathe underwater
It's all in my hands
But what can I do?
Don't let it fall apart
A shot in the dark [5x]
