Dark necessities lyrics

[Verse 1]

Comin' on to the light of day,

we’ve got many moons that are deep at play.

So I keep an eye on the shadow's smile

to see what it has to say.

You and I both know

everything must go away.

Ah, what do you say?

Spinning out, head is on my heart.

It's like a bit of light and a touch of dark.

You got a sneak attack from the zodiac,

but I see your eyes spark.

Keep the breeze and go,

blow by blow and go away.

Oh what do you say, girl?

[Chorus]

Yeah, you don't know my mind,

you don't know my kind.

Dark necessities are part of my design.

Tell the world that I'm falling from the sky.

Dark necessities are part of my design.

[Verse 2]

Stumble down to the parking lot,

you got no time for the afterthought.

You're like ice cream for an astronaut.

Well that's me looking for we.

Turn the corner and...

find a world at your command

layin’ the hand, girl.

[Chorus]

You don't know my mind

you don't know my kind.

Dark necessities are part of my design.

Tell the world that I'm falling from the sky.

Dark necessities are part of my design.

[Interlude]

Do you want this love of mine?

The darkness helps to sort the shine.

Do you want it, do you want it now?

Do you want it overtime?

The darkness helps to sort the shine.

Do you want it, do you want it now?

[Verse 3]

Make it work like a paperback,

with the track record of a maniac.

So I'm moving in and we unpack.

It's the same as yesterday.

Any way we roll,

everything must go away.

Ah, what do you say girl?

[Chorus]

You don't know my mind,

you don't know my kind.

Dark necessities are part of my design.

Tell the world that I'm falling from the sky.

Dark necessities are part of my design.
