Sumney, Moses - Dwell In The Dark Lyrics






Why do you come here?
Why do you tear me apart?
I don't know why you're so...
Made of material parts

Why do you love fear
Carried around in a cart?
I don't know why your soul
Cloaks a mysterious heart

Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...

When you were little
You used to keep on the light
You grew up and grew in
Swallowed the spite

And it won't be long now
Your body's wasting away
What's the point of this shell
Crafted in caves

Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...

And now can you open...
A mind that's been broken down
Illuminate the ocean floor
Make all the creatures bow
You'll come around when you're tired
Of being denied

Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...
Dwell in the dark, oh...

Dwell in the dark, oh...
You dwell in the dark, oh...
You dwell in the dark, oh, woh...
You dwell-yeah...

You dwell in the dark, ah...
You dwell yehe...
You dwell in the dark
Die in the dark

    Swallowed the spite

    And it won't be long now
    Your body's wasting away
    What's the point of this sham
    Crafted in cares

    Dwell in the dark, oh...
    Dwell in the dark, oh...
    Dwell in the dark, oh...
    Dwell in the dark, oh...
    And now can you open...
    A mind that's been broken down
    [In the wake near?] the ocean floor
    Make all the creatures bow
    You'll come around when you're tired
    Of being denied

    Dwell in the dark, oh...
    Dwell in the dark, oh...

    Bold of you to assume we haven't already destroyed the replay button on his performance of Plastic

  59. C.... ....

    Where can I get this song? He's got a few songs on itunes, but this is sadly not one of them. If there's even a website to buy it from, I'd be more than happy to, I just need this on my playlist wherever I go!

  60. A.... M....

    I have goosebumps in and around my ears..

  65. M.... L....

    This song. <3

  66. n.... g....

    Gorgeous song I hope to hear more like this

  67. s.... ....

    he's like a mixture of Lianne la Havas & Corby

    s.... ....

    @Eric Nguyen YAS, pls listen to plastic and his others songs. No doubt he is a mix of both lianne and jeff. But hey thats just my opinion

    s.... ....

    I understand that, but his vocal range is nothing near, and he has a way different style of singing and tone, i think you just are comparing great singers haha

    s.... ....

    the background harmonies greatly resemble jeff + lianne to me. but it might be different to you and that's ok

    s.... ....

    Simmer down kids; let's just appreciate great music! xo

    s.... ....

    His range and timbre are so similar to Jeff's. Thank you for sharing this view. I thought I might be the only one to listen to, appreciate, and see the similarities of both.

  68. S.... R....

    such a soothing voiceeeee

  69. j.... ....

    please have a baby with lianne la havas

  70. E.... P....

    finally!

  71. B.... G....

    Word! Saw you at Wiltern too. Im sure you're taking your time on an album, but cant wait. 

    B.... G....

    I need to see him live! His voice is  just AMAZING! 

    B.... G....
