  • (In the dark, in the dark)
    Oh, I've done it again
    Dug a little deep, and it's all caved in
    Now I free fall in a black hole
    I know I'm getting warm 'cause I feel so cold

    But I'm looking on the bright side now
    Trying to figure out somehow (None of this is real, no)
    It's looking like a write off now
    I think we need to talk, like, now

    So don't swear to God, He never asked you
    It's not his heart you drove a knife through
    It's not his world you turned inside out
    Not his tears still rolling down
    Jesus Christ, you're so damn cold
    Don't you know you've lost control?
    Forget about the things you think I know
    No secrets, you can't keep me

    (In the dark, in the dark)
    Deathblow, look at you go
    Brought a T-62 to a Rodeo
    So tall, it broke the fourth wall
    Guess my fairytale has a few plot holes

    Well, I'm looking on the bright side now
    Trying to figure out somehow (None of this is real, no)
    You can give the act up now
    Go ahead and take a bow

    So don't swear to God, He never asked you
    It's not his heart you drove a knife through
    It's not his world you turned inside out
    Not his tears still rolling down
    Jesus Christ, you're so damn cold
    Don't you know you've lost control?
    Forget about the things you think I know
    No secrets, you can't keep me
    (In the dark, in the dark)
    No secrets, you can't keep me
    (In the dark, in the dark)

    I'm not looking for salvation
    Just a little faith in anyone or anything
    I'm not looking for salvation
    Just a little faith in anyone or anything
    I'm not looking for salvation (Oh no, could this all come caving in?)
    Just a little faith in anyone or anything
    I'm not looking for salvation
    Just a little faith in anyone or anything
    And it's time I knew you, so

    Don't swear to God, He never asked you (Oh no)
    It's not his heart you drove a knife through (Oh no)
    It's not his world you turned inside out (So look me in the eye right now)
    Not his tears still rolling down
    Jesus Christ, you're so damn cold
    Don't you know you've lost control?
    Forget about the things you think I know
    No secrets, you can't keep me (In the dark)
    Don't swear to God, He never asked you
    It's not his heart you drove a knife through (In the dark)
    It's not his world you turned inside out
    Not His tears still rolling down
    Jesus Christ, you're so damn cold
    Don't you know you've lost control?
    Forget about the things you think I know
    No secrets, you can't keep me (In the dark)
    Don't swear to God, He never asked you (Oh no)
    It's not his heart you drove a knife through (In the dark)
    It's not his world you turned inside out (Oh no)
    Not His tears still rolling down (You're so damn cold)
    Jesus Christ, you're so damn cold (You're so damn cold)
    Don't you know you've lost control? (Oh)
    Forget about the things you think I know (Oh)
    No secrets, you can't keep me
    (In the dark, in the dark)
    No secrets, you can't keep me
