She doesn't need powder or pills
To go to where she's going
It's a no-frills type of thrill
She leans back and let's the silence spin
He tends to confuse her wandering mind
With a booze-filled stupor
Or the dead time blues
She doesn't need so much from him
He wanted to know
Where she goes, when she goes
He just wanted to know
Where she goes, when she goes
Dreaming all day long
Where she comes,
Scheming
Can't conceive to be wrong
She watches the flame as it eats at the wax
And the wax dribbles down into rivers on her arm
Rivers keep her from going back to sleep
He grabs the candle away from her hand
But doesn't stop the flame or stop the wax
From where it lands, meets her eye
He doesn't need to say
"Take me with you"
(Chorus)
Darkness
It could make you laugh or cry
How much are you filled with?
I'm up to my eyes
