Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You came in on a whisper, drip by drip
And leaked in till my heart was filled with this
The middle of your ocean, here I sit
In my emptiness, in my own wickedness
[PreChorus]
And it's all counterfeit
You are my all, I am your surrogate
You only kill for the thrill of it
[Chorus]
Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly
Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins
This is a place Heaven's not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly
You and I can never be holy
Don't be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark, you get dark things
[Verse 2]
I've worshipped at your altar faithfully
I've summoned every demon inside me
And now they won't go back from whence they came
Am I an idiot? I'm still not sick of this
[PreChorus]
And just like sycophants
We hate the way the numb feels intimate
You know you love it, hypocrite
[Chorus]
Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly
Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins
This is a place Heaven's not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly
You and I can never be holy
Don't be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark, you get dark things
[Bridge]
All the monsters in your dreams (Will be me, will be me)
Look at all the broken things (I can be, I can be)
Let me show you every sting
Tie you up by your heartstrings
Let me take you till I break you
And bring you to your knees
[Chorus]
Mayday, we've been sinking here slowly
Turning into something unholy
Running away from the same sins
This is a place Heaven's not been
Eyes shut wide and going in boldly
You and I can never be holy
Don't be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark, you get dark things
[Outro]
You and I will never be holy
Don't be surprised what the night brings
When you search the dark, you get dark things
