Who Lies in Darkness Lyrics
passing the hours outside yourself
with bitter dream now dont go down
summers reflection it falls inside
well into darkness
i have found you far too late
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
watching the storm thats drawing near
what's barely seen is always here
it leaves a question on your breath
it has no answer
i have found you far too late
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
passing the hours outside yourself
bitter dream now dont go down
dunno where or why i've got
who lies in darkness
i have found you far too late
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
with bitter dream now dont go down
summers reflection it falls inside
well into darkness
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
what's barely seen is always here
it leaves a question on your breath
it has no answer
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
bitter dream now dont go down
dunno where or why i've got
who lies in darkness
silently it steps away
i wouldn't call you back to wait for me
First off y has no one commented
Secondly i think this song is about friends who kinda stopped hanging out, one of them started doing bad stuff and the other feels like he abandoned the first
Lannegan is probly the friend who felt as though he abandoned the other
The lyrics seem a bit opaque, plus it was written while they were young, Lanegan got better as a lyric writer...
That being said, I’m catching a vibe of Low Self-Esteem from the words.
