Friends in the Dark

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lightning strikes And all of the animals Scurry back to their holes The million eyes of the nightmare jungle Make you wish you weren't alone The trees might bite Because all of their bark is bending Into sinister grins You might be right If you think that the horror Is just about to begin [Pre-Chorus] The night is falling Faith is faltering And you're alone [Chorus] What's your plan to survive When you find you're alone in the dark? You can pray to the lord of the light But you ain't gonna get too far You can sit in the cold, dark, night And just hope for a spark You might make your way in the day But you'll need friends in the dark [Verse 2] Shapеs emerge from shadows And thеy're coming from every way From the black of the briar They're howling hungry How will you keep them at bay? Your blood runs cold A chill like a knife is cutting right into your veins Fear takes hold, you pray its the wind When you hear someone whisper your name [Pre-Chorus] The night is falling Faith is faltering And you're alone [Chorus] What's your plan to survive When you find you're alone in the dark? You can pray to the lord of the light But you ain't gonna get too far You can sit in the cold, dark, night And just hope for a spark You might make your way in the day But you'll meet friends in the dark [Post-Chorus] And while you can manage a smile Under that big, warm, yellowy star You might be alright in the light But you'll need friends in the dark [Bridge] Hey now! What's it gonna be? You need a guide, so how about me? I can show the way around I'm not afraid! Wait, what's that sound? Surely you know its no good To trek alone in the woods What could be better than a guy Who's scarier than what's inside? Don't go Don't dare go In there alone Alone, alone [Chorus] What's your plan to survive When you find you're alone in the dark? You can pray to the lord of the light But you ain't gonna get too far You can sit in the cold, dark, night And just hope for a spark You might make your way in the day But you'll need friends in the dark [Post-Chorus] And while you can manage a smile Under that big, warm, yellowy star You might be alright in the light But you'll meet friends in the dark
