"If You're Not Dark" lyrics

"If You're Not Dark"

Are you looking out
Or back at where you've been?
No need to be convincing now
Or to let the right one in
School supplies for a cloudy sunrise
You can let the edges peel
Put your foot into the wheel
When they call your name
Oh, it's a sideways game

And if you're not dark
At least in some little part
What are you on
And can I have some?
Oh, if you're not dark
I don't believe it

Now tearing up the street
Yeah vibrating in the heat
High on anxiety
Oh, it sounds like a dream to me
Yeah, carving out a space
Oh, a different kind of grace
Slicing up the screen
Finding the in-between
Yeah and shining there
Like something sewn
Into the lining there
Oh, and we all know

If you're not dark
At least in some little part
What are you on
And can we get some?
Woah, if you're not dark
In some pocket of your heart
Where are you from?
Are you just numb?

Woah, if you're not dark
At least in some little part
What are you on?
Oh, I don't want none
If you're not dark
Ooh ooh ooh
If you're not dark
Ooh ooh ooh
