How does this work?
Caution: You are now annotating this song as
[Verse 1]
Be careful making wishes in the dark
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
Besides in the meantime I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart
I'm in the details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out of the cage
I'm a young lovers rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite

[Bridge]
My songs know what you did in the dark

[Chorus]
So light em up, up, up
Light em up, up, up
Light em up, up, up
I'm on fire [x2]

[Verse 2]
All the writers keep writing what they write
Somewhere another pretty vein just dies
I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see
That you're the antidote to everything except for me
A constellation of tears on your lashes
Burn everything you love
Then burn the ashes
In the end everything collides
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see

[Bridge & Chorus x2]

About My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up)

After a four year hiatus, Fall Out Boy returns. The song is about, what else?, their return to music and starting with a clean slate. A burned slate

This is the first single off their forthcoming album, Save Rock and Roll
