Lyrics

Life isn't easy from the singular side

Down in the hole some emotions are hard to hide

It's your decision, it's the chance that you take

It's on your head, it's a habit that's hard to break

Do you need a friend? Would you tell no lies?

Would you take me in? Are you lonely in the dark?

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

You never listen to the voices inside

They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide

You're never sure if the illusion is real

You pinch yourself but the memories are all you feel

Can you break away from your alibis?

Can you make a play? Will you meet me in the dark?

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark, ha-ha-ha

Don't ya need me? Hey, hey

Don't ya need me? Oh yeah

Don't ya need me? Hey, hey

Don't ya need me? Oh yeah

You take no interest, no opinions to dear

You make the rounds, ah you try to be so sincere

You guard your hopes and you pocket your dreams

You'd trade it all to avoid an unpleasant scene

Can you face the fire when you see me there?

Can you feel the fire? Will you love me in the dark?

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark

In the dark, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
