a story to be told of how a boy and girl best friends is how it all began
Lyrics
Verse 1
You came in like a thread
Pulled through my day
White page, black ink
Turning me sideways
I kept your name
On the tip of my tongue
Like a locked-up door
That you already swung
Pre-Chorus
And now it's moving
Under my skin
Every small thing
Starts up again
Chorus
Dolor in the dark
Pull me apart
Dolor in the dark
Right from the start
Say it again
(again, again)
Hold it too long
And it won't let go
Verse 2
I tried to wash off
The taste of that night
Cold water, cold hands
Still you stayed bright
You were a match
To the box in my chest
One little spark
And the whole thing crept
Pre-Chorus
And now it's moving
Under my skin
Every small thing
Starts up again
Chorus
Dolor in the dark
Pull me apart
Dolor in the dark
Right from the start
Say it again
(again, again)
Hold it too long
And it won't let go
Bridge
If I name it out loud
Does it lose its grip?
If I cut the line
Do I still feel this?
I wanted simple
I wanted clean
But your little storm
Lives in between
Chorus
Dolor in the dark
Pull me apart
Dolor in the dark
Right from the start
Say it again
(again, again)
Hold it too long
And it won't let go
