DARK THINGS

You came in on a whisper, drip by drip And leaked in 'til 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 counterfeit You are my all, I am your surrogate You only kill for the thrill of it Mayday, we've been sinking here 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 (Dark things, dark things) I've worshiped 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 we love it, hypocrite Mayday, we've been sinking here 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 (will be me, will be me) Look at all the broken things (I can be, I can be) 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-dark, dark things, dark-dark things) (Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark things) Mayday, we've been sinking here 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
