In The Darkness Lyrics
I want to cut through my skin
And pull you within
My heart burns like the sun
As our flesh becomes one
In the darkness, my heart aches at the sight of you
Trembles and quakes within sight of you
In the darkness
Our bodies burning, tides are turning, somehow stopping time
What is becoming of my heart and mind?
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
I will surrender my sin
And give you control
Make me a martyr for love
Till the habits abide
In the darkness, my heart aches at the sight of you
Trembles and quakes within sight of you
In the darkness
Our bodies burning, tides are turning, somehow stopping time
What is becoming of my heart and mind?
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
And pull you within
My heart burns like the sun
As our flesh becomes one
Trembles and quakes within sight of you
In the darkness
What is becoming of my heart and mind?
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
And give you control
Make me a martyr for love
Till the habits abide
Trembles and quakes within sight of you
In the darkness
What is becoming of my heart and mind?
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live
In the darkness, all that you want from me, is all I have to give
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live

I love this song! This is an ultimate passion song when you feel that uncontrollable desire towards someone and you just want to spend all night making love to that person and lose yourself in passion.
"I wanna cut through my skin and pull you within." I thought it was "pour you within" not pull you within but I’m not sure. There is nothing negative about this bit — it’s just about desire and wanting to feel the other person throughout. You want to feel him/her as close as possible and you just wish you could pour them within your blood to feel satisfied.
"What is becoming of my heart and mind" — I think this is the bit where you are starting to wonder whether you are completely falling for this person and it’s not just physical passion anymore. This is an amazing song, one of my favourites from the album.
Where's the opening line? "I wanna cut through my skin / and pull you within." Anyway, I love this song! I actually think it's about the writer having an affair or cheating on a significant other and they're singing to the outside lover.
"My heart burns like the sun / as our flesh becomes one" is probably sex, the moment they start doing it, lol. The heart burning is probably how wrong the infidelity feels.
"My heart aches at the sight of you / trembles and quakes within sight of you / in the darkness" makes me think that.
Also, "make me a martyr for love / 'til the habits abide" and "I will surrender my sin."
Plus Chester sings, "what is becoming of my heart and mind?" Like he didn't make the right decision in cheating or having the affair (mind) and he's becoming callous and cold (heart).
this is my fav song from the album-i bought out of ashes 2day-totally reccomened it-luv from chicago-wish the best to chester and the gang
I don't know that I see infidelity in the lyrics... But anything is possible I suppose. I take it another way.

I take the song lyrics as alluding to 2 new lovers, both learning from past experiences and overcoming pain and mistrust. "Coming so easily... Learning how to live" gives me that impression.

I think the giving up of control and making him a martyr for love.... Means he is once again willing to lose it all in the search for that euphoric love that he now feels every time he sees her. The burning of the heart... He is still "In the Darkness" of that past hurt, but wanting to trust the feeling pulling him to her!
That is my take... New Love and both wanting to trust it's real! Thoughts????
Yeah, see I've been turning this song over and over and the more I look at it, the more it does seem like it could be deep love! I think I just get caught up in the "I wanna cut through my skin" part -- that doesn't sound positive or something dealing with love to me, lol.

Plus, "what is becoming of my heart and mind" sounds like something negative too because he's QUESTIONING it; if it's positive, why question it? Who cares WHY you're feeling good in your heart and mind, soak it up!! Like in "Give...

But I keep going back to the "heart burning" thing and that definitely sounds like a strong, loving passion. "And give you control / Make me a martyr for love" totally stumps me though, haha. I see your point too! This song is on the confusing side in terms of interpretation and THAT'S why it's awesome :)
It comes through to me to be about two lovers surviving in the "darkness" which probably represents suffering of the world around them. Chester mentions lines of both joy and suffering when with the "you" of the song, in the "darkness." The martyr part is about either through joy or suffering lover gives Chester faith, to survive/trust in their love in the "darkness." That's my take on it.
i like this song.
its obviously about "making love" in the dark. im assuming its about his wife. i dont necessarily think its about cheating. Out of Ashes is about chesters new life. becoming a new person. its pretty much all positive
yeah i think this song is about sex between 2 people who love each other but the love sounds all consuming. There's a kind of sadness about the song too almost like the man is tormented in some way and emotionally clinging to the girl xxxx
this song is about him giving the devil his soul
