Lyrics Silverstein – In The Dark
Text:
Tunnel your way in,
It’ll spit you out.
I can hold it in it’s a godsend.
A heart like an hourglass on it’s end.
Does it matter if the sun ever comes back up?
In the dark, in the dark,
When I close my eyes I see you somehow.
I’ve never felt more alone
And it brings me down.
In the dark, in the dark,
When I’ve left this town and nothing matters now,
I’ve never felt more alone
God it brings me down.
(Don’t try to fight it.)
Smiling like a fool, action I feign,
lungs pushing air like a hurricane.
Can I fake it for whole train ride back?
Can I make it til the sky starts turning black?
In the dark, in the dark,
When I close my eyes I see you somehow.
I’ve never felt more alone
And it brings me down.
In the dark, in the dark,
When I’ve left this town and nothing matters now,
I’ve never felt more alone
God it brings me down.
I fell head first into Union Pool,
Never thought a night of joy would turn out so cruel.
Avoided tender trap never went inside,
If I’m out don’t wake me,
This is the only peace I get.
And if I’m out don’t wake me
Until the sun comes up again.
And as we leave we cross these bridges,
On bumpy roads that taunt me.
I know it’s temporary,
It’ll call me back to haunt me.
In the dark, in the dark,
When I close my eyes I see you somehow.
I’ve never felt more alone
God it brings me down.
In the dark, in the dark,
When I’ve left this town and nothing matters now,
I’ve never felt more alone
God it brings me down.
