It's Dark Around Me


It's dark around me

I see the light breaking in as the music pulses

Banging

Louder and louder against my ears

 

Bodies are around me

Pressing and pushing and pulsing

Running

Faster and faster as the sound nears

 

The music fades, the darkness falls

I see nothing but bright light around me

Bleeding

Redder and redder as it pools around me

 

I'm on the ground

I don't know what happened

I'm bleeding

 

We were all dancing

I was having fun with my girlfriend beside me

Fading

Dimmer and dimmer goes the bright light

 

I'm dying

Shot for dancing

And it's dark around me
