dark things

You came in on a whisper drip by drip
And leaked in till 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 sinkin 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 will never be holy
Don’t be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark you get dark things

I’ve worshiped at your alter faithfully
I’ve summoned every demon inside me
But 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 you love it
Hypocrite

Mayday we’ve been sinkin 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 will 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 mend, I can mend)
Let me show you every sting
Tie you up by your heart strings
Let me take you
Till I break you
And bring you to your knees

Mayday we’ve been sinkin 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 will 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
