Honey, I've done a bad thing
and you can act like you don't know it,
but it's always with me,
soft and white and glowing.
Honey, I am a bad man.
And you can act like I never show it,
but the devil wrote a song for me
and he sings it over my shoulder,
and it goes like this:
(chorus)
What I'd give for darkness
to come down and pull me under.
All my thoughts are lightning
and every memory is an ember.
(chorus)
Honey, there's still faces
that I see in every reflection
with their smiles in stasis
and voices pointed in my direction
while they sing along with
(chorus)
