Unlike the first five tracks, “Leave You In The Dark” is an original piece and not an acoustic reimagination of a previously released song. The song revolves around Derek’s romantic relationship and how he’s unable to connect with his partner. They’ve been separated for quite some time, but they won...
[Verse 1]
It’s all the same
I’d say you’re losing me again
If truth be told, I blame the monsters in your head
You’ll blame me when you turn off the lights
And try to say that you can’t sleep
[Chorus]
And it goes to show
How you make your way into my dreams again
And the less we know
Yeah, the more we break right apart
So we’ll raise the stakes and show them
That we’re different
(Oh...)
Yeah, we're different
(Oh...)
[Verse 2]
It’s all the same, I've seen this way too many times
I’d leave you in the dark, it comes as no surprise
But that's if I wanted to
And we both know that I’m not over you
And I know I don’t say it but I love you, too
And it’s starting to make sense
Sense
[Chorus]
And it goes to show
How you make your way into my dreams again
And the less we know
Yeah, the more we break right apart
So we’ll raise the stakes and show them
(That we're different)
[Bridge]
I thought I told you once
We’ve got it all mapped out and I’m gonna be the better man
And that’s a start to this
I thought I told you once
We’ve got it all mapped out and I’m gonna be a better man
And though it’s been said, it’s finally starting to make sense
[Chorus]
And it goes to show
How you make your way into my dreams again
And the less we know
Yeah, the more we break right apart
So we’ll raise the stakes and show them
Yeah, the more we break right apart
So we’ll raise the stakes and show them
