77 Apes - sometimes i'm the dark (feat. sarah dunn)

Words are burning embers, cut like glass and then they
Leave the ugly scars
A relationship in cinders, slamming doors and
Peeling tires of your car
You need me to be better
But not changing who you are
You want me to bring the light
But sometimes I'm the dark
I've said it once my love, I've said a thousand times
I'll say again - it's old – we're getting old
Holding cups, your stuff
The love, my life, my darling, hold me
Like it's getting cold, we're getting cold
I can't stop from swallowing down the thing
That's keeping us apart
I'm drowning what I said that I loved
Sometimes I'm the dark
Can you hear my heart roil
Seven leagues away from you and what you need?
Sometimes love is work and toil
Are you better when it's you?
No more us?
Without me?
Shot glass an empty vessel slurred insults spilling
Down the hallway stairs
I scream at you 'cause I'm ashamed
Oh I can't stop, I'm so afraid
And oh, it's not fair
Yeah you're out on the balcony
Screaming at the stars
I'm sorry I've exhausted you, and still
I need you in the dark
Can you hear my heart roil
Seven leagues away from you, and what you need?
Oh my love it's draining you, it's killing you
Are you better when you're free?
If there's no more us?
You without me?
Can you hear my heart break
Nothing like that night there when we first met
I feel like I have tricked you, love
The heat we shared on that night that when we first met
Do you remember all that passion
When we made love in the park
Babe I'm sorry that I wasn't true
Sometimes I'm the dark
Scream that I have pulled away, but baby I can't stop
It's pulling me down deep again, down deep again
Someday I hope we'll find our love
Till then, please remember me as a friend
I can't believe that you were here for me, because
I'm not ready for the start
But there's always something out there
That'll keep us from the dark
There's always something out there
And sometimes it's the dark
Now it's just a gap here in our bed
As we lie here in the dark
