Meet me in the dark | <poem>Meet me in the dark | ||
My heart shrivels when the light is shining | My heart shrivels when the light is shining | ||
I can't get back home alone | I can't get back home alone | ||
| Line 152: | Line 80: | ||
But I still need to know I'm something | But I still need to know I'm something | ||
Just like in a dream I scream | Just like in a dream | ||
I scream, but no one hears a word I'm saying | |||
Have I lost my mind this time | Have I lost my mind this time | ||
Or have I won the game we're playing | Or have I won the game we're playing | ||
That's all I really care about | That's all I really care about | ||
It's kind of wonderful | It's kind of wonderful | ||
Kiss me while we both are still intangible | Kiss me while we both are still intangible | ||
| Line 170: | Line 98: | ||
I'm ready to trust you | I'm ready to trust you | ||
Cause I ain't afraid of the dark | Cause I ain't afraid of the dark | ||
I'm ready to love you | I'm ready to love you | ||
I'm ready to give my heart | I'm ready to give my heart | ||
I'm ready to trust you | I'm ready to trust you | ||
Cause I ain't afraid | Cause I ain't afraid | ||
I ain't afraid of the dark | I ain't afraid of the dark | ||
| Line 181: | Line 108: | ||
Some people can get by on nothing | Some people can get by on nothing | ||
But I still need to know I'm something | But I still need to know I'm something | ||

===Demo (ver. 1)=== | |||
<poem>Keep me in the dark | |||
My heart shrivels when the light is shining | |||
Hitch and Dawkins' bitch | |||
I switch and join those kids in Satan’s army | |||
Praising the awakened one | |||
He truly saved my life | |||
But after all his truth is small | |||
And I love the lie | |||
Everybody needs salvation | |||
And if it doesn’t come we make some | |||
Some people can get by on nothing | |||
But I still need to know I’m something | |||
Gently set aside | |||
Boulez, Bartók, and Giuseppe Verdi | |||
I will try to be | |||
Messi and cross myself when I knock the cross in | |||
That’s all I really care about | |||
It’s kind of practical | |||
Excuse me while I light this scented candle | |||
Everybody needs salvation | |||
And if it doesn’t come we make some | |||
Some people can get by on nothing | |||
But I still need to know I’m something | |||
Yes, I still need to know I’m something | |||
I’m ready to love you | |||
I’m ready to give my heart | |||
I’m ready to trust you | |||
'Cause I ain’t afraid of the dark | |||
I’m ready to love you | |||
I’m ready to give my heart | |||
I’m ready to love you | |||
'Cause I ain’t afraid | |||
I ain't afraid of the dark | |||

<poem>Keep me in the dark | |||
My heart shrivels when the light is shining | My heart shrivels when the light is shining | ||
Hitch and Dawkins bitch | Hitch and Dawkins' bitch | ||
I switch and join those | I switch and join those kids in Satan’s army | ||
Praise for the awakened one | Praise for the awakened one | ||
He truly saved my life | He truly saved my life | ||

But I still need to know I’m something | But I still need to know I’m something | ||
So how do we explain Yngwie | So how do we explain | ||
Yngwie, or Abba, and don’t forget Max Martin | |||
Do I have to be Messi | Do I have to be Messi | ||
And cross myself when I knock the cross in | And cross myself when I knock the cross in | ||
That’s all I really care about | That’s all I really care about | ||
