lyrics

If only I could remember my dreams
I’d tell you it’s not as fun as it seems
Not as fun as it seems

My monsters are buried deep
Only come out when I am asleep
In the moonlight they’re playing with me

It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark

Last night I arose from the dead
When my feet couldn’t move I saw you by the bed
Your shadow arms behind my back holding me tight
I knew I was supposed to run but I didn’t hide

They say you can control your thoughts if you want it bad enough
So why doesn’t it work for me?
(No matter where I aim, I end up losing the game)
They say kill that which causes you pain
So I am numbing my brain
I just need a moment of peace
(Separate me from my mind)
Won’t you grant me a sweet release
(There is chaos inside)
I hope for you all that I’m one of a kind

It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark

It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
It must be dark
