about

This one is a hard one for me.
I'll let you make your mind up about what it means to you.
May The Darkness Be with You

lyrics

There’s a Fire in my heart
But it ain’t for you
X3
Oh no, oh no honey
It ain’t for you
X4

These are the words she said
As she turned and walked away
I’ve never felt that dead
As I did on that day
And I walked for miles and miles and miles
Just to get myself away
Never in the right headspace
To hear things put in that way

But if you want something,
You gotta learn, to let it go
If want to be somewhere
You better get up off your chair and go
Cause you’re never better served
Than by yourself you know
No you’re never, never, never,
Better served than by yourself you know

There’s a Fire in my heart
But it ain’t for you
X3
Oh no, oh no honey
It ain’t for you
X4

I felt an Ice pick
Driven through my back
Into my heart
I never would’ve thought that
This was all doomed from the start
And I needed you by my side
But you were gone away
You broke my heart in a thousand pieces
When you said those things that day

‘Cause I needed you
Like a flower needs the summer rain
And I’m gonna miss,
I’m gonna miss you
Like a fire on a cold winter’s day
But it was time for us to go our own ways
It was time for us to go our own ways

There’s a Fire in my heart
But it ain’t for you
X3
Oh no, oh no honey
It ain’t for you
X4

Are You Satisfied? & In The Dark - MP3 Singles
by Reignwolf

So far only singles released. But every live recording I see of this man, every note he plays, every line he sings get my blood rushing. Jordan if you're reading this, thank you. Van Tastik

Sex
by King Dude

I love the lo-fi vibe king dude has. I love the darkness of his music. I love the aesthetic he presents and he is another inspiration to me. Saw him live and shouted along with every song. Van Tastik
