I am easily influenced
By others dos and don'ts
How can they bring me up so high

To sink me down like a stone
I'm flirting with a nation
Who wants to see me destroyed

All the things they give to me
Are things that I should avoid
Cause I would go turn you dark


The soldier that's jaded
Is the one who can't fight

there's too much evil in people
To hold a gun without crime
Everyday I get a feeling

That this love is a fake
can't help myself being paranoid
How can I push them away?

They make me go dark

Now I'm blacker than black

I don't know my way back
I reach for a hand and
they started to laugh

don't see color no more
Coming straight from my soul
They put black in my bones

Told me to get on with the show
I caught myself from going dark


There's worse things than dieing
No, I don't stress about pain
But you've put a world on my shoulder

Took my color away
I hope you get dark


So you're blacker than black
And you won't know your way back
you'll reach for a hand

And I'll laugh like you laughed
Won't see color no more
But you'll feel black in your soul

I'll get on with the show
And leave you out in the cold


I made you go dark
And everybody goes dark
And all you people going dark

The whole world just gets dark
The whole world just gets dark
Everybody goes dark
