Dark Sets In

The sweat had sunk into his sheet
The moon was lighting up the street
He pictured her in some strange place
Bathing in some strangers heat
If heavens you, then hell is me
He closed his eyes to better see
All images taking turns
Then suddenly like in a dream
Hes watching him, touching her
And knowing well the earth will rebel
And knowing about natures curse
But that was just a bad excuse
There wasnt even much to lose
So many lives that he could choose
He chose the wrong one now hes thinking
Inside, outside
Youre tearing me
For the love of your skin
Just tell me where have you been
Inside, outside
Youre tearing me
And it dont mean a thing
Just tell me where have you been
Is this the dark setting in?
Imagination if you dare
Can take you almost anywhere
Hes howling like a lonely wolf
But acting like something scared
(This is not happening, God set me free)
He tried to hold the clamor down
Silence never seemed so loud
He never looked for what he found
Another storm behind the clouds
Inside, outside
Youre tearing me
For the love of your skin
Just tell me where have you been
Inside, outside
Youre tearing me
And it dont mean a thing
Just tell me where have you been
Is this the dark setting in?
Feelings come and feelings go
But no one really wants to know this one, baby
You can trust it like your meanest friend
It dont suck up, it dont pretend
Like a big slowmotion accident
It will f*ck you right up in the end
Now watch it
Now watch it
Inside, outside
Youre tearing me
And it dont mean a thing
Just tell me where have you been
Is this the dark setting in?
