These are just words from the void of wanting Externalised in melody and chanting I want to be where darkness dwells A place in the city where night-time swells And spills itself over to the break of day With only eyes and hands to feel my way Take me to a place where darkness swells The pain to a point where it can't be held Burst and break it and let it all spill Through the dark city night where angels will I'm close enough to smell the drink on your breath Be under your skin being fully dressed To give and give and give 'til there's nothing left Take and take and take 'til you've all you need Take me to a place where darkness swells The pain to a point where it can't be held Burst and break it and let it all spill Through the dark city night where angels will In the guise of strangers Lead me back Let me heal Until I feel you touch me I can't dissolve Make water of my heart, make powder of my bones There's more pain here than I can keep inside me No place I know where it can't find me Take me to a place where darkness swells The pain to a point where it can't be held Burst and break it and let it all spill Through the dark city night where angels will Take and take and take me 'til I start to bleed Take me out of myself and set me free Free from the hurt to be absolved Until I feel you touch me I can't let go Take me to a place where darkness swells The pain to a point where it can't be held Burst and break it and let it all spill Through the dark city night where angels will In the guise of strangers Lead me back Let me heal.
