Oh, dark day

Was I just someone to dominate?

Worthy opponent, flint to my blade, now we're playing with shadows

At the Sunset Tower, you said, "Open your mouth"

I did

And what came spilling out that day was the truth

If I had virginity, I would have given it too

Why do we run, run to the ones we do?

I don't belong to anyone

Oh, dark day

Was I just young blood to get on tape?

'Cause you dimed me out when it got hard

Uppercut to the throat, I was off guard

Pure heroine mistaken for featherweight

But what came spilling out that day was the truth

And once I could sing again, I swore I'd never lеt

Let myself sing again for you, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-woah-oh-oh

Singing

Said why do we run to thе ones we do?

I don't belong to anyone, ooh

I made you God 'cause it was all

That I knew how to do

But I don't belong to anyone, ooh

Am I ever gonna love again?

Am I ever gonna love again?

Am I ever gonna love again? Ooh

Am I ever gonna love again? (Am I ever gonna love again?)

Will you ever feel like a friend? (Tell it to the rock doves)

Am I ever gonna love again? (Sing it to the fountain)

Do you understand? Tell it to him
