Wallflowers - Another One in The Dark lyrics

rate me

We took 'em highwe took 'em straight up the hill

They wanted it allwe gave 'em such a fill

In their parades we stole every thrill

And in their games we made every kill

We took them hardwe 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 slayed dry like a fire would

So the bottom of my fears

Is that the girl might just disappear

But 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 hearted mama

Just another one in the dark

When we rolledrolled on like a big drum

We went to the top just above everyone

They wanted to wintie us up with a stringand steal everything

We took 'em skin on skinwe laid 'em down in the ring

So I swearwe're a pair

Like loneliness and a prayer

And you know I may still believe

You may still need me

Wellshe turned out the lights

When she opened the whites of my eyes

Another one in the dark

Broken from the start

Just another one in the dark

And in their nights we made out with a loud scream

And in their sleep we howled inside every dream

So if you're trying to break me

Come on why don't you shake me

Right out of my treethe one that you made meme

Wellshe sang out of tune

When she shot down the moon

As I saw my all freeze

Down onto my knees

Where I was hit at the hipbetween the cup and the lip

As I was struck down underwith lightning and thunder

As she cut all the stringsthat I'd tied to her wings

Leaving me in the darkwe stood just feet apart

But she never seen me at all
