Don't bore us
Get to the chorus
And open the floodgates
We want the good bits
Without your bullshit
And no heartaches
Someone lead me
Out the darkness
Out the darkness
With no tricks and
No struggling
Then no one gets hurt
We absorb you
We absolve you
Throw your rubbish away
Someone lead me
Out the darkness
Out the darkness
Someone lead me
Out the darkness
Out the darkness
