Once you eyes they shone like flashlights, fountains of clarity And the most alkaline of batteries were you and me Free of failure, flicker or fade Yeah but depending where you're from too much daylight can seem like an oddity And devotion is a commodity, so with you it seems It only comes in trade Yeah but the first time the bill isn't paid, it's too late So you just live in the dark You could drive but you just park You just talk when you could sing And now it doesn't mean a thing You could bite, but you just bark You could light but you just spark You live on in the dark Rolling papers, bottles and needles, and people we trusted Our eyes just become too adjusted We'd be busted If sightlessness were a crime So now I guess I should be searching for matches but I don't see what's the use Engines run 'till they're out of juice And I can't even produce Fuel enough to light your face And that's a light I will never replace in time So I just live on in the dark I could drive but I just park I just talk when I could sing And now it doesn't mean a thing I could bite, but I just bark I could light but I just spark I live on in the dark It's as if we've only ever come together just to test each other's mettle Or to justify subsistence or bolster our resistance to the idea that we should struggle When we could just settle So you just get numb to every itch And there's no feeling in your fingertips And you can't find the switch And we've grown much too tired to grope Yeah, we lost all our fire to cope a long time ago So we just live on in the dark We could drive but we just park We just talk when we could sing And now it doesn't mean a thing We could bite but we just bark We could light but we just spark We live on in the dark
