Going Dark

It’s going dark now
When I’m all alone
I kissed your picture
Like you were still my own

I followed your footsteps
With a trail of tears
If you still want me
To find you
I’ll say a little prayer

It’s not gonna be obvious
I’m sometimes hard to read
Like a book, written in chinese

Going dark now
Darker than the ocean blue
Going dark now, baby I love you

It’s going dark now
When the sun refuses to shine
I read all your letters
Like you’d always be mine

I heard your laughter
In my waking life
But there will be no happily after
Cause happiness is only found
With an eight-dollar movie ticket
And love is only captured
With a steel frame and a dying rose
And love is just an endless sea
A sea of dreamers anyway

Going dark now
Darker than the ocean blue
Going dark now
Baby I love you

The lights
Are on but nobody’s home
And I’m all alone
