In The Dark - Billy Squier

Life isn’t easy from the singular side

Down in the hole some emotions are hard to hide

It’s your decision it’s a chance that you take

It’s on your head it’s a habit that’s hard to break

Do you need a friend would you tell no lies

Would you take me in are you lonely in the dark…

You never listen to the voices inside

They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide

You’re never sure if the illusion is real

You pinch yourself but the mem’ries are all you feel

Can you break away from your alibis

Can you make a play will you meet me in the dark…

Don’tcha need me… hey, hey

Don’tcha need me… oh yea

Don’tcha leave me… hey, hey

Don’tcha need me… oh yea

You take no int’rest no opinion’s too dear

You make the rounds and you try to be so sincere

You guard your hopes and you pocket your dreams

You’d trade it all to avoid an unpleasant scene

Can you face the fire when you see me there

Can you feel the fire will you love me in the dark…
