EDDIE VEDDER
"The Dark"

I didn't mean to up and scare ya
I came here to open up
I've been able to hear ya
When you speak to yourself
I've been seeing you're good
I've been hearing you're bad
I've been feeling so guilty
You've been feeling so sad

[Pre-Hook:]
These nights with the sky still full of stars
Oh, I'm gonna find you in the dark

[Hook 1:]
I'll find you in the dark
I'll find you in the dark
Let me lift, lift you out of the dark

Walking the moon as if on a leash
Follow my shadow in the sand
Blue light beaming down on me
And the footprints you have left
Your silence covers me
Like heavy water fathoms underneath the sea
Midnight, not a cloud in the sky
I should be lost in your eyes

[Pre-Hook:]
These nights with the sky still full of stars
Oh, I'm gonna find you in the dark

[Hook 1:]
I'll find you in the dark
I'll find you in the dark, yeah
I'll find you in the dark
I'll find you in the dark
Let me lift

[Bridge:]
We all could, we all could use some redemption
We all fail, fail in the face of perfection
Surrender to apologies
Oh, but you gotta bury me?
Why'd ya gotta bury me?

[Hook 2:]
Come find me in the dark
Come find me in the dark
Come find me in the dark
Come find me in the dark

[Outro:]
Is there a thread of connection?
Is there a deeper confession?
Let's find a way into the clear
I'll find you in the dark
Come find me in the dark, yeah
Yeah, yeah
I'll find you in the dark
Come find me in the dark, hey
Let us lift
