Lyrics

I...
I'm waking spirits tonight
And I can hear your voice
I got nothing to hide
'Cause you're with another boy
And I'm carving the sky
I'm having visions
Manifesting us in time
So I ride from the coast
I've got three more days
I know you want me the most
Want me in an altered state
I've been sleeping with ghosts
And I swallow medication
You should know

Strike a match and whisper my name
(Burning, burning)
Speak in tongues
Bend me 'til I break
(Burning, burning)

And I'm giving in to your fever touch
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo, oh
(Burning, burning)

Does the mark on my skin make you hot with shame?
'Cause I'm in love with the sin
And I know how to take the blame (know how to take the blame)
And I'll let you in
Do I look good in this position, just like him?
Ooh

Strike a match and whisper my name
(Burning, burning)
Speak in tongues
Bend me 'til I break
(Burning, burning)

And I'm giving in to your fever touch (fever)
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo, oh
(Burning, burning)

I want, I want, I want all the danger
Come on, come on, come on
Keep me craving
This sweet intoxication, it shakes my soul
I want, I want, I want entertainment
Come on, come on, come on
Keep me craving
This sweet intoxication, it shakes my soul (my soul)

And I'm giving in to your fever touch
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo (Palo Santo)
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo

You're, you're the darkness
You're, you're the darkness
You are the darkness in me, Palo Santo
Oh
You're, you're the darkness (you are, you are)
You're, you're the darkness (you are)
You are the darkness in me, Palo Santo

#YearsAndYears

[amydavison]

It’s so unfair that years and years are so underrated because their music, especially from palo santo, is amazing.

[markrich]

I'm 60 Years old and have listened to a lot of music in my time. People say that music isn't as good as it used to be but this band are brilliant

[qatob]

I still come back to this song, even all these years.

[SparkleOnWithJoyfulJon]

Palo santo was and is currently used as a sacred way by native cultures to clear away negative spirits and lower energies. By burning the wood of palo santo, the smoke clears and cleanses. It's of the Light. It has a beautiful smell to it.

[mariano]

Olly never disappoint me with his vocals

[yo_oshunn]

When it goes Palo Santo DAMM THAT BRINGS ME TO A DIFF UNIVERSE

[Pintsomnia]

"Do I look good in this position, just like him?" Damn...

[deadpaul]

It’s a crime that this wasn’t released as a single.

[annikathegerman]

The song is so simple but when you turn the volume all the way up you can hear how he is smiling while singing and I love that about their music!

[adamfoster]

In my opinion they are one of the best bands of the last ten years!

[IGotRevtinyArmyStayOnceBlink]

I feel they are so good, but it seems they are really underrated for some reason... I don’t get it. The music, the lyrics, the concepts, the live dancing this group should be so much bigger. I feel like they were bigger ... I’m not sure what happened. I was telling friends about the new album and stuff and people were like oh didn’t he make that one song from like 2 yrs ago...I almost slapped my friends lol. But yeah they need more promotion imo.

LYRICS
You're the darkness in me
I...
I'm waking spirits tonight
And I can't hear your voice
I've got nothing to hide
'Cause you're with another boy
And I'm carving the sky
I'm having visions manifesting us in time
So I arrive from the coast
I've got three more days
I know you want me the most
Want me in an altered state
I've been sleeping with ghosts
And I swallow medication
You should know

[Pre-Chorus]
Strike a match and whisper my name (burning, burning)
Speak in tongues, bend me 'til I break (burning, burnning)

[Chorus]
And I'm giving in to your fever touch
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You'll remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo
(Burning, burning)

[Verse 2]
There's a mark on my skin
Make you hot with shame
'Cause I'm in love with the sin
And I know how to take the blame (know how to take the blame)
And I let you win
Do I look good in this position, just like him?

[Pre-Chorus]
Strike a match and whisper my name (burning, burning)
Speak in tongues, bend me 'til I break (bend me 'til I break)

[Chorus]
And I'm giving in to your fever touch (fever)
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You'll remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo

[Bridge]
I want, I want, I want all the danger
Come on, come on, come on keep me craving
This sweet intoxication shakes my soul
I want, I want, I want entertainment
Come on, come on, come on keep me craving
This sweet intoxication shakes my soul (my soul)

[Chorus]
And I'm giving in to your fever touch
Let it all begin when the fire starts
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo (Palo Santo)
And the memories are filling up with smoke
You'll remember me and I start to choke
You're the darkness in me, Palo Santo

[Post-Chorus]
You're, you're the darkness
You're, you're the darkness
You are the darkness in me, Palo Santo
Oh
You're, you're the darkness. (you are, you are)
You're, you're the darkness. (you are)
You are the darkness in me, Palo Santo
