DARK THINGS

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] And it's all counterfeit You are my all, I am your surrogate You only kill for the thrill of it [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] I've worshipped 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 [Pre-Chorus] And just like sycophants We hate the way the numb feels intimate You know you love it (Hypocrite) [Chorus] 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 [Instrumental Breakdown] [Bridge] 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 And bring you to your knees (Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark) (Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark) [Chorus] 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 [Outro] You and I will never be holy Don't be surprised what the night brings When you search the dark, you get dark things
