dark things Lyrics – STARSET
You came in on a whisper, drip by drip / And leaked until my heart was filled with this
The middle of your ocean, here I sit / In my emptiness, in my own wickedness
And it’s all *** / You are my all, I am your surrogate
You only *** for the thrill of it
Mayday, we’ve been sinking in slowly / Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins / This is a place heaven’s not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly / You and I can never be holy
Don’t be surprised what the night brings / When you search the dark, you get dark things
I’ve worshipped at your altar faithfully / I’ve summoned every demon inside me
And now they won’t go back from whence they came / Am I an idiot? I’m still not sick of this
And just like sycophants / We hate the way the numb feels intimate
You know and love it / (You hypocrite)
Mayday, we’ve been sinking in slowly / Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins / This is a place heaven’s not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly / You and I can never be holy
Don’t be surprised what the night brings / When you search the dark, you get dark things
All the monsters in your dreams / (Mayday, mayday)
Look at all the broken things / (I can mend, I can mend them)
Let me show you every sting / Tie you up by your heartstrings
Let me take you ’til I break you / Then bring you to your knees
(Dark things, dark things, dark things) / (Dark things, dark things, dark things)
Mayday, we’ve been sinking in slowly / Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins / This is a place heaven’s not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly / You and I can never be holy
Don’t be surprised what the night brings / When you search the dark, you get dark things
You and I will never be holy / Don’t be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark, you get dark things
