Starset

11

[Verse 1]

You came in on a whisper, drip by drip

And leaked in 'til my heart was filled with this

The middle of your ocean, here I sit

In my emptiness, in my own wickedness

[Pre-Chorus]

And it's all counterfeit

You are my all, I am your surrogate

You only kill for the thrill of it

[Chorus]

Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly

Turning into something unholy

Running away from the same sins

This is a place heaven's not been

Eyes shut wide and going in boldly

You and I can never be holy

Don't be surprised what the night brings

When you search the dark, you get dark things

[Verse 2]

I've worshipped at your altar faithfully

I've summoned every demon inside me

And now they won't go back from whence they came

Am I an idiot? I'm still not sick of this

[Pre-Chorus]

And just like sycophants

We hate the way the numb feels intimate

You know you love it (Hypocrite)

[Chorus]

Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly

Turning into something unholy

Running away from the same sins

This is a place heaven's not been

Eyes shut wide and going in boldly

You and I can never be holy

Don't be surprised what the night brings

When you search the dark, you get dark things

[Instrumental Breakdown]

[Bridge]

All the monsters in your dreams (Will be me, will be me)

Look at all the broken things (I can be, I can be)

Let me show you every sting

Tie you up by your heartstrings

Let me take you 'til I break you

And bring you to your knees

(Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark)

(Dark-dark, dark things, dark-dark)

[Chorus]

Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly

Turning into something unholy

Running away from the same sins

This is a place heaven's not been

Eyes shut wide and going in boldly

You and I can never be holy

Don't be surprised what the night brings

When you search the dark, you get dark things

[Outro]

You and I will never be holy

Don't be surprised what the night brings

When you search the dark, you get dark things
