Come on to the light of day
We've got men and women that are deep at play
So I keep an eye on the shadow smile to see
What it has to say
You and I both know everything must go away what do you say
Spinning out head is on my heart
It's like a bit of light and a touch of dark
You got a sneak attack from the zodiac
But I see your bright spark
Keep the breeze and go
Go my flow and go away what do you say
You don't know my mind
You don't know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design and
Tell the world that I am falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design
Stumble down through the parking lot
I've got no time for the after thought
You're like ice cream for an astronaut well that's me looking for we
Turn the corner and find a world that's your command
Playing the hand
You don't know my mind
You don't know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design and
Tell the world that I am falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design
Do you want this love of mine
The darkness helps to sort the shine
Do you want it do you want it now
Do you want it all the time
But darkness helps us all to shine
Do you want it do you want it now
Make it work like a paperback
With the track record of a maniac
So I move it in and we unpack it's the same as yesterday
Anyway we roll everything must go away what do you say
You don't know my mind
You don't know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design and
Tell the world that I am falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design
