Darkness You Give Lyrics - Jandek

Without your kiss 

I don't want to live 

I'll stay forever 

In the darkness you give 

It's just that I consider it my due 

For all the transgressions I made against you 

I don't mind how far I have to fall 

To find your mercy at the end of it all 

Please take me back to you 

There's nothing else I'd want to do 

I feel like an alien underground 

I've got little forces through which I'm bound 

With you at the end I may defend 

And lay me down here to mend 

My broken scarred body 

My soul does wait 

For you to open your heavenly gate 

Without your kiss 

I don't want to live 

I'll stay forever 

In the darkness you give 

I'll just consider it my due 

For all the transgressions I've made against you 

I don't mind how far I have to fall 

To find your mercy at the end of it all 

Please take me back to you 

There's nothing else I would want to do 

I feel like an alien underground 

I've got little forces through which I'm bound 

With you at the end I may defend 

My broken scarred body 

My soul does wait 

For you to open your heavenly gate
