Darkness
[00:02.91] I don't wanna be alone, I don't wanna be
[00:06.17] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[00:09.42] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[00:12.68] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness anymore
[00:16.93] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[00:17.14] Here I am, alone again
[00:19.14] Can't get out of this hole I'm in
[00:20.89] It's like the walls are closin' in
[00:22.66] You can't help me, no one can
[00:24.15] I can feel these curtains closin'
[00:25.91] I go to open 'em
[00:27.41] But something pulls 'em closed again
[00:29.41] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[00:30.92] Feels like I'm loathing in Las Vegas
[00:33.93] Haven't got the vaguest why I'm so lost
[00:36.18] But I'd make you this small wager
[00:38.18] If I bet you, I'll be in tomorrow's paper
[00:40.43] Who would the odds favor?
[00:43.44] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[00:43.94] I'm so much like my father, you would think that I knew him
[00:46.95] I keep pacin' this room Valium
[00:48.94] Then chase it with booze, one little taste it'll do
[00:51.45] Maybe I'll take it and snooze, then tear up the stage in a few
[00:55.21] (Hello, darkness, my old friend)
[00:56.45] Fuck the Colt 45, I'ma need somethin' stronger
[00:59.71] If I pop any caps, it better be off of vodka
[01:02.98] Round after round after round, I'm gettin' loaded
[01:05.98] That's a lot of shots, huh? (double entendre)
[01:08.49] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[01:09.74] And I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[01:13.24] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[01:16.50] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness anymore
[01:20.52] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[01:21.76] Now I'm starin' at the room service menu off a Benzo
[01:25.02] I can hear the music continue to crescendo
[01:28.03] I can see the whole fuckin' venue from my window
[01:31.30] That's when you know you're schizo
[01:33.30] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[01:34.03] 'Cause I keep peekin' out the curtain from the hotel
[01:36.31] The music is so loud, but it's almost as though
[01:39.06] I don't hear no sound, I should get ready for the show now
[01:42.55] Wait is this the whole crowd? I thought this shit was sold out
[01:46.31] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[01:47.31] But it's only the opening act, it's early, don't overreact
[01:50.82] Then something told me relax and just hope for the show to be packed
[01:54.07] Don't wanna hit the stage before they fill each row to the max
[01:57.08] 'Cause that'd be totally wacked, you can't murder a show nobody's at
[02:01.33] (Hello, darkness, my old friend)
[02:01.85] But what if nobody shows?
[02:03.11] Panic mode 'bout to snap and go motherfuckin' wacko at any second
[02:07.36] 'Bout to cancel the show, just as fans below rush the entrance
[02:10.62] Plan is a go to wreck shit, cameras in all directions
[02:13.87] (Hello, darkness, my old friend)
[02:14.12] The press is about to go ape shit bananas on all the networks
[02:16.88] Commando with extra clips, I got ammo for all the hecklers
[02:19.89] I'm armed to the teeth, another Valium fall off the bed
[02:23.15] Hit the ground and crawl to the dresser
[02:24.90] Alcohol on my breath as I reach for the scope
[02:27.66] I'm blackin' out, I'm all out of meds
[02:29.41] With them benzodiazepines gone
[02:31.66] Now it's just magazines sprawled out on the floor
[02:34.16] Fuck the media, I'm goin' all out, this is war
[02:37.42] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[02:38.68] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[02:42.68] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[02:45.94] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness anymore
[02:50.45] (Hello, darkness, my old friend)
[02:50.69] People start to show up, time to start the show up
[02:53.45] It's 10:05 PM and the curtain starts to go up
[02:56.71] And I'm already sweatin' but I'm locked and loaded
[02:59.97] For rapid fire spittin' for all the concert-goers
[03:02.97] Scopes for sniper vision, surprise from out of nowhere
[03:05.99] As I slide the clip in from inside the hotel
[03:09.25] Leanin' out the window, going Keyser Söze
[03:12.49] Finger on the trigger, but I'm a licensed owner
[03:15.75] With no prior convictions, so law says sky's the limit
[03:19.01] So my supply's infinite, strapped like I'm a soldier
[03:22.02] Got 'em hopping over walls and climbing fences
[03:25.28] Some of them John Travolta, staying alive by inches
[03:28.77] (Hello, darkness, my old friend)
[03:30.03] Cops are knockin', oh, fuck, thought I blocked the entrance
[03:33.28] Guess show time is over no suicide note
[03:36.34] Just a note for target distance
[03:38.11] But if you'd like to know the reason why I did this
[03:41.37] You'll never find a motive, truth is I have no idea
[03:45.13] I am just as stumped, no signs of mental illness
[03:48.13] Just tryin' to show ya the reason why we're so fucked
[03:50.89] 'Cause by the time it's over, won't make the slightest difference
[03:54.40] (Hello darkness, my old friend)
[03:55.90] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
[03:59.66] I don't wanna be alone in the darkness
