​dark things - STARSET

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

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

And just like sycophants
We hate the way the numb feels intimate
You know you 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
And bring you to your knees
(Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark)
(Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark)

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
