Leave Me in the Dark Songtext
i saw a tree that had toppled over from the storm
it reminded me of us
so i dragged it home and built a boat out of it
now i sail on open water
set a course for the tempest sweeping westbound
towards lands that i have yet to venture near

they crossed the line from fear to desire
they tied you up and ran
now you're chained to a chair in a foreign country
and you told me in a postcard
sent to me from the seventh circle of hell
where they prod your back with pitchforks and knives

i could attempt to stare into your red eyes
and if i turn to stone
sculpt me into the image of a perfect boy
animate me with a small kiss
the one that i've been longing for since the second i met you
that brings me to life, so disapointed

you shed your skin after sleeping off the day
do your memories follow suit?
because you told me that you'd never felt this bad and
that is why i cannot love you
leave me in the dark with a lonesome heart
and a light that i will turn on when you leave
