She found a little dark
At the bottom of the cookie jar
These things, we
Can't plan em', they
Come from a different planet
Yeah
Carefree in grade seven
Little dark found them at recess
Weird haircut, no name brands
Listening to all the wrong bands
It took some time but you realize
He covered up your shine
Now you're an empty hole
With a broken heart
All your light got swallowed by a little dark
Right then the world turned cold
Aching for a spark
But all your light got swallowed by a little dark
Yeah
He found a little dark
In the backseat of his teacher's car
"Slow down, I'm not ready"
She said, "Baby, sweetheart, hey
I thought you said you loved me"
It's easy to lose your glow
When you need a friend but she won't let you go home
Now you're an empty hole
With a broken heart
All your light got swallowed by a little dark
When did you get so old?
How'd you lose that spark?
All your light got swallowed by a little dark
Ooh, yeah
I found a little dark, yeah
We found a little dark
I was an empty hole
With a broken heart
I let my light get swallowed by a little dark
But with a hand to hold
There's a tiny spark
A little light illuminates a little dark
Yeah, you're an empty hole
With a broken heart
Yeah, all your light got swallowed by a little dark
And when the world's so cold
You don't know where to start
'Cause all your light got swallowed by a little dark
But a little light illuminates a little dark
Yeah, oh
Yeah
A little light illuminates a little dark
