Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark
Can't be sure when they've hit their 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 gotta get you out 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, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In the dark, dark
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
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 the monster that you see
My songs know what you did in the dark
So light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In the dark, dark
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
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, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In the dark, dark
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In the dark, dark
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
