Darkness Is My Ally

 

 

Come on and bring it – The hurt makes me grow

There’s so much your walls won’t let you know

There’s this idol – She’s a Madonna of Rock -

 With hollow eyes, she’s fallin’ apart

Yeah, she’s so far lost

 

Darkness is my ally, baby

Darkness is my ally, baby

You…. you, you, you, you

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll whore

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Come on, just a little more, more, more

 

A fancy friend – a she devil conspiracy

The terminology of Astrology –

Seeking solace in the end –

No where it begins and burn ‘til the end

Everyone is a setting sun

 

Darkness is my ally, baby

Darkness is my ally, baby

You…. you, you, you, you

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll whore

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Come on, just a little more, more, more

 

With one leg in and one out

I’m on the outside looking in and

The inside looking out

‘Give you so much – so much to talk about

And want to doubt

 

Darkness is my ally, baby

Darkness is my ally, baby

You…. you, you, you, you

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll whore

Why don’t you be my rock-n-roll baby

Come on, just a little more, more, more
