Crazy Ex-Girlfriend , which aired its final episode on the CW last Friday, was one of the most formally daring shows in recent TV memory. Originally structured as a romantic comedy, the series...

The Darkness Lyrics

(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

(Chorus 1)
He's the darkness
My first love, my true love
The darkness
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

(Chorus 2)
The darkness
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?
