"Darker Still" lyrics

"Darker Still"

I'm buying acres in the sky
And building stairs with every lie
With every step I make her cry
Until I die, until I die
I'm swinging hard for all my life
Reaching across this great divide
Until I see the other side
Until I die, until I die
And the night grows darker still
And the night grows darker still
And the night grows dark, darker still

I'm swimming deep into her eyes
I'm swimming strong, but won't survive
The dark, the blue, I cannot fight
Until I die, until I die
I'm wishing hard upon the night
With every wish, a new star dies
But bright, the light behind her eyes
Until I die, until I die
And the night grows darker still
And the night grows darker still
And the night grows dark

Darker still

Until I die, until I die
And the night grows darker still
Until I die, until I die
And the night grows darker still
Until I die, until I die
And the night grows darker still
And the night grows dark

Speaking in an interview with Rick Sound, Parkway Drive's vocalist Winston McCall explained on the 6th of July, 2022, "That concept of the song has been with us for like three albums now, but it's like it's been the challenge for us. [...] Like it's been a thing we've always wanted to create that but haven't had the ability to craft it and the time to craft it. So, we set ourselves the goal very early on like when that riff to come about quite early in process of like 'This deserves a song worthy of that melody'."
"Love. Time. Death. The great defining elements that make up our existence. This song begins with the simplest of human sounds and represents these elements as the musical journey grows to reach its souring crescendo before facing the inevitable conclusion of its journey. The night grows dark... Darker Still," stated Winston McCall in a press release about this track released on the 23rd of August, 2022, accompanied by a music video.
