In The Dark Lyrics

Cover art for In The Dark lyrics by Tracy Chapman

this seems a really dark song, for tracy at least. to me it seems it could be about a rape or some other violation because there seems to be that mix of sexuality ('let me be tempted') and violence ('leave my body with permanent marks'). but in the last verse it does seem like she enjoys whatever is happening, even though she claims to not want to know about 'The things some do in the dark'.
