[Verse 1]
Darkness, be my friend
I have a trampoline
And you can pick apart the girls you see upon my screen
But you hardly know her
Yeah, you hardly know her like I do
Now you’re married to
What it all boils down to is the smile you had at seventeen
Dancing with your friends
To the UK Top Ten for this week
Now you hardly know those songs
You hardly know ‘em like you used to
[Pre-Chorus]
So fuck your plans
And don’t act like it’s the end
Be a friend
Take my hand
[Chorus]
Well, pardon my manners, I left them outside
It's not to your taste, you turn a blind eye
You traded out for something you like
If you're gonna leavе, I'll follow behind
[Post-Chorus]
Stay a while
Take timе
Be a friend
[Verse 2]
Darkness, come again
I didn’t see you slipping out the door
Darkness, be my friend, yeah
I’m the same old girl you knew before
Well, you hardly know her
But she thinks she knows you
But you hardly know her like I do
[Pre-Chorus]
Fuck your plans
And don’t act like it’s the end
Be a friend
Take my hand
[Chorus]
Well, pardon my manners, I left them outside
It's not to your taste, you turn a blind eye
You traded out for something you like
If you're gonna leave, I'll follow behind
[Post-Chorus]
Stay a while
Take time
Be a friend
[Chorus]
Well, pardon my manners, I left them outside
It's not to your taste, you turn a blind eye
You traded out for something you like
If you're gonna leave, then I'll surely die
[Post-Chorus]
Stay a while
Take time
Just be a friend
