Be careful making wishes in the dark (dark)
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark (mark)
And besides in the mean-meantime
I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart
I'm in the de-details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out of the cage
I'm a young lovers rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite
My songs know what you did in the dark
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
In the dark (dark)
In the dark (dark)
Writers keep writing what they write
Somewhere another pretty vein just died
I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see
That you're the antidote to everything except for me
A constellation of tears on your lashes
Burn everything you love, then burn the ashes
In the end everything collides
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see
My songs know what you did in the dark
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
In the dark (dark)
In the dark (dark)
My songs know what you did in the dark
(My songs know what you did in the dark)
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
So light em up, light em up, light em up
I'm on fire
