[Intro – low baritone hum, warm bass pulse, distant keys] [Verse 1] Lock the door, leave the lights the way they are I already know the shape of what you hide You talk brave when the room is full of noise But you go quiet when I step inside I don’t rush the tremble in your hands I let it tell me everything you need [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to name it I can feel it on your skin That secret little hunger You never let him in [Chorus] I’m the dark you ache for when the good ones fade The voice that finds you after midnight breaks Not a promise dressed in ribbons, not a boy who begs Just a man who stays until the wanting shakes Come undone for me Yours in the dark [Verse 2] Put your armor on the chair beside the bed I won’t mock the cracks you tried to hide I can hold the storm without becoming it I can want you loud and still be kind When the world has taken every pretty lie I’m the truth that doesn’t flinch or leave [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to chase it It’s already in the room That slow, devoted hunger That ruins you by noon [Chorus] I’m the dark you ache for when the good ones fade The voice that finds you after midnight breaks Not a promise dressed in ribbons, not a boy who begs Just a man who stays until the wanting shakes Come undone for me Yours in the dark [Bridge – almost spoken, bass only] Say my name like a confession Say it low so only I can keep it I won’t ask you twice I already know you need this [Final Chorus] I’m the dark you ache for when the lights go thin The hands that know the map of every sin Not a fantasy that leaves you when the morning starts I’m the heat that stays and still respects your heart Come undone for me Yours in the dark [Outro – baritone fade, soft guitar] Yours in the dark… Stay.
