I Come Alive in the Dark
Sometimes I think about drinking myself to death
Sleep all fucking day
Enjoy the time I have left
I'm so tired of begging you for a slice of that light
Because baby you know that I'm the one who rules the night
I hope you're reading this under a blanket
While I'm beating like a bat beneath the stars
You want a bitch who can cut like the Grim Reaper
Baby I come alive in the dark
Write-ups in Pitchfork didn't get you anywhere
You think it's punk because you hold a guitar
Looking at you is my numbing
Baby I come alive in the dark
Sometimes I wake up with black in my head
And every little hiccup feels like a loose thread
I'm one hundred steps closer to death
By every witches' pricking thumbs
You can call me Macbeth
Because everybody wants to rule the god damn world
And honestly your honesty makes me wanna...
And everybody wants the rules to being cool
And the first step is being callous
So I want to thank you
I want to thank you for the malice
Looking at you is my numbing
Baby I come alive in the dark
Sometimes I look up and see reflections of myself
Little pale imitations of a very real hell
You're breathing down those pearly white sparkling gates
But you're still fifty shades too safe to have what it takes
I hope you're reading this under a blanket
While I'm beating like a bat beneath the stars
You want a bitch who can cut like the Grim Reaper
Baby I come alive in the dark
Sleep all fucking day
Enjoy the time I have left
I'm so tired of begging you for a slice of that light
Because baby you know that I'm the one who rules the night
I hope you're reading this under a blanket
While I'm beating like a bat beneath the stars
You want a bitch who can cut like the Grim Reaper
Baby I come alive in the dark
Write-ups in Pitchfork didn't get you anywhere
You think it's punk because you hold a guitar
Looking at you is my numbing
Baby I come alive in the dark
Sometimes I wake up with black in my head
And every little hiccup feels like a loose thread
I'm one hundred steps closer to death
By every witches' pricking thumbs
You can call me Macbeth
Because everybody wants to rule the god damn world
And honestly your honesty makes me wanna...
And everybody wants the rules to being cool
And the first step is being callous
So I want to thank you
I want to thank you for the malice
Looking at you is my numbing
Baby I come alive in the dark
Sometimes I look up and see reflections of myself
Little pale imitations of a very real hell
You're breathing down those pearly white sparkling gates
But you're still fifty shades too safe to have what it takes
I hope you're reading this under a blanket
While I'm beating like a bat beneath the stars
You want a bitch who can cut like the Grim Reaper
Baby I come alive in the dark
