Third Eye Blind – Darkness lyrics
[Verse 1: Stephan Jenkins]
Blue come over, born a Joneser
The cops pull out the radar
And shoot devious grins
Another day begins

I want someone to know me
Maybe tell me who I am
'Cause I've faced down my demons
And cried out to a god
A god I've never seen
Lights

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
And the world darkens around me
Strange friends all surround me
New ideas in my head start to burn
Dropped out of schools 'cause of things that I never learned

[Post-Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
And the world darkens around me, yeah
World darkens around me, yeah
World darkens around me, yeah

[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
I want you to love me
Like you did before you knew me
And I never thought there'd be any help for somebody like me
A vacancy
Say

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
'Cause the world darkens around me
Strange friends all surround me
New ideas in my head start to burn
Trust no one, that's the one thing that I've learned

[Post-Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
'Cause the world darkens around me, yeah
World darkens around me, yeah

[Outro: Stephan Jenkins]
Bring me the sun 'cause I slide off the moon
Bring me the sun
Slide off the moon
Yeah, you better get home soon
There's no hope for people yeah like you and me
There's no hope for people
Slide off the moon
Bring me the sun 'cause I slide off the moon
Bring me the sun
Slide off the moon
