Verse: 1 In my life I've had so many men But there's one I come back to again and again We've been on and off for such a long time And now he's back and I'm feeling oh so fine He's the darkness bass hand, drop from My first love, my true love The darkness same as above, ending in chord He knows me better than anyone He holds me close and whispers things that I don't want to hear When I feel the butterflies of dread, I know the darkness is near Verse: 2 We met around the time I started first grade Every summer after that we'd play solitaire in the shade On prom night, he was the only boy I kissed And when he'd visit my dorm, I'd remember how much I'd missed The darkness same as above... droping to His love for me is pure The darkness He's handsome for a metaphor Bridge And his name is Tyler Yeah, that feels right His name is Tyler He drunk-dials me every night Tyler, Tyler, Tyler Your kiss feels like a cut You play drums and wear guyliner And your pet name for me is "slut." Coda For so many years I've used the darkness to feel But now there are things in my life that are actually real I gotta make a choice, darlin' don't ask me why So will I have the strength to tell the darkness To tell Tyler Darkness Goodbye?
