"Another One In The Dark" lyrics
"Another One In The Dark"
Took 'em high, took 'em straight up the hill
They wanted it all, gave 'em such a fill
Their parades, we stole every thrill
In their games, we made every kill
Took them hard, took them up against the wall
In their loss, we never let them fall
In their flames, we sailed up to the moon
In their rains, we stay dry like a fire would
So the bottom of my fears
Is that girl might just disappear
That'll be the death of me
The day she's just a memory
Well, she turned out the lights when she opened the whites of my eyes
Another one in the dark
Broken all apart
Just another one in the dark
When we rolled, rolled on like a big drum
We went to the top, just above everyone
They wanted to win, tie us up with a string and steal everything
We took 'em skin on skin
We laid 'em down in the ring
So I swear, we're a pair
Like loneliness and a prayer
You know I might believe
You may still need me
Well, she turned out the lights and she opened the whites of my eyes
Another one in the dark
Broken from the start
Just another one in the dark
In their nights, made out with a loud scream
In their sleep, howl inside every dream
So if you're trying to break me
Come on, why don't you shake me
Right out of my tree?
The one that you made me, me, yeah
Well, she sang out of tune when she shot down the moon
As I saw my all freeze, down onto my knees
I was hit at the hip between the cup and the lip
As I strut down under the lightning and love
As she cut all the strings that I'd tied to her wings
Leaving me in the dark
We stood just feet apart
She'd never see me at all

It's history breathing
Get out from under the gun

Looking for songs in a bottle
Talking with strangers who don't know my pain
Blurry eyed and burned out
Choking on more than I can swallow
