- Now It's Dark Lyrics / with translationsIn dreams I can rule your life
With me nothing's ever right
Sing for me up on a stage
Keep your mind trapped in a cage
I'm you man I'm what you need
Dance with me but never lead
One deep breath will set me free
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
You know that I am...
One f*ckin' well dressed man !
Now it's dark, but I can see
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
Now it's dark, your gonna be
Exactly what I want to see
Now it's dark, Mommy
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
A sensation
Of elation
Intoxication
Now it's dark
A candy coated existence
Underneath is decadence
What was hidden you have found
Made it your own battleground
Pretty, pretty, don't say please
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
You know that I am...
One f*ckin' well dressed man !
Now it's dark, but I can see
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
Now it's dark, your gonna be
Exactly what I want to see
Now it's dark, Mommy
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
A sensation
Of elation
Intoxication
Now it's dark
I'll send you a love letter
Straight from the bottom of my heart
You'll be f*cked forever
The candy coated clown's done his part
I'm your man I'm what you need
Dance with me but never lead
One deep breath will set me free
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
You know that I am...
One f*ckin' well dressed man !
Now it's dark, but I can see
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
Now it's dark, your gonna be
Exactly what I want to see
Now it's dark, Mommy
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
A sensation
Of elation
Intoxication
Now it's dark
Now it's dark
Now it's dark
With me nothing's ever right
Sing for me up on a stage
Keep your mind trapped in a cage
I'm you man I'm what you need
Dance with me but never lead
One deep breath will set me free
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
You know that I am...
One f*ckin' well dressed man !
Now it's dark, but I can see
Don't you f*ckin' look at me
