[Verse 1]
Everyone, all of them
Everyone said, "Don't go that way"
So, of course, to that, I said
"I think I'll go that way"

[Chorus 1]
And I left the door open to the dark
I said, "Come in, come in, whatever you are"
But it didn't want me yet

[Verse 2]
Then like a babe in a crib
After some big hand turns out the light

[Chorus 2]
And I opened my arms wide to the dark
I said, "Take it all, whatever you want"
I didn't know that I was young

[Bridge]
I didn't know what it would take
I didn't know what it would take

[Outro]
Sometimes I think I am free
Until I find I'm back in line again
