Darkness You Give Lyrics

Without your kiss
I don’t want to live
I’ll stay forever
In the darkness you give
It’s just that I consider it my due
For all the transgressions I made against you
I don’t mind how far I have to fall
To find your mercy at the end of it all
Please take me back to you
There’s nothing else I’d want to do
I feel like an alien underground
I’ve got little forces through which I’m bound
With you at the end I may defend
And lay me down here to mend
My broken scarred body
My soul does wait
For you to open your heavenly gate
Without your kiss
I don’t want to live
I’ll stay forever
In the darkness you give
I’ll just consider it my due
For all the transgressions I’ve made against you
I don’t mind how far I have to fall
To find your mercy at the end of it all
Please take me back to you
There’s nothing else I would want to do
I feel like an alien underground
I’ve got little forces through which I’m bound
With you at the end I may defend
My broken scarred body
My soul does wait
For you to open your heavenly gate

Without your kiss
I don’t want to live 
I’ll stay forever 
In the darkness you give 
It’s just that I consider it my due 
For all the transgressions I made against you 
I don’t mind how far I have to fall 
To find your mercy at the end of it all 
Please take me back to you 
There’s nothing else I’d want to do 
I feel like an alien underground 
I’ve got little forces through which I’m bound 
With you at the end I may defend 
And lay me down here to mend 
My broken scarred body 
My soul does wait 
For you to open your heavenly gate 
Without your kiss 
I don’t want to live 
I’ll stay forever 
In the darkness you give 
I’ll just consider it my due 
For all the transgressions I’ve made against you 
I don’t mind how far I have to fall 
To find your mercy at the end of it all 
Please take me back to you 
There’s nothing else I would want to do 
I feel like an alien underground 
I’ve got little forces through which I’m bound 
With you at the end I may defend 
My broken scarred body 
My soul does wait 
For you to open your heavenly gate

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
