Fall Out Boy - My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light Em Up) Lyrics
Artist: Fall Out Boy
Album: Save Rock and Roll
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
My songs know what you did in the dark
Light em up
I’m on fire
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 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 the monster that you see
My songs know what you did in the dark
Light em up
I’m on fire

A constellation of tears on your lashes/Burn everything you love, then burn the ashes
With a OneRepublic drumbeat, hair-metal shrieks and an overall compressed homogeneity of someone like The Script, Fall Out Boy avoid anything remotely rock ‘n’ roll like the plague in this lyrically-ambiguous play for your fist-pump; [LISTEN].
I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see/That you're the antidote to everything except for me
After a four-year hiatus, FOB return with a late 90s teen horror-inspired fantasy about bumping off all the main rivals for an unrequited love. Quite where this unexpected fusion of squealing hair metal and emphatic hip-hop beats fits in with their mission to “save rock and roll” is anyone’s guess; [LISTEN].
