Prince Of Darkness Lyrics - Indigo Girls - Indigo Girls

My place is of the sun and 

This place is of the dark (and I) 

I do not feel the romance 

I do not catch the spark (x2) 

I don't know when I noticed life was life at my expense 

The words of my heart lined up like prisoners on a fence 

The dreams came in like needy children tugging at my sleeve 

I said I have no way of feeding you so leave 

But there was a time I asked my father for a dollar 

And he gave it a ten dollar raise 

When I needed my mother and I called her 

She stayed with me for days (days)

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Now someone's on the telephone, 

Desperate in his pain 

Someone's on the bathroom floor 

Doing her cocaine 

Someone's got his finger on the button in some room 

No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom 

But I tried to make this place my place 

I asked for Providence to smile upon me with His sweet face 

Yeah but I'll tell you... 

My place is of the sun and 

This place is of the dark (and I) 

I do not feel the romance 

I do not catch the spark 

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 

And I do not feel the romance, I will not be... 

(By grace, my sight grows stronger and I will not Be a Pawn 

For the Prince of Darkness any longer)

Maybe there's no haven in this world for tender age 

My heart beat like the wings of wild birds in a cage 

My greatest hope my greatest cause to grieve 

And my heart flew from its cage and it bled upon my sleeve 

The cries of passion were like wounds that needed healing 

I couldn't hear them for the thunder 

I was half the naked distance between hell and heaven's ceiling 

And he almost pulled me under (under) 

Now someone's on the telephone, 

Desperate in his pain 

Someone's on the bathroom floor 

Doing her cocaine 

Someone's got his finger on the button in some room 

No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom 

But I tried to make this place my place 

I asked for Providence to smile upon me with His sweet face 

Yeah but I'll tell you... 

My place is of the sun and 

This place is of the dark (and I) 

I do not feel the romance 

I do not catch the spark 

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark 

And I do not feel the romance, I will not be... 

(By grace, my sight grows stronger and I will not Be a Pawn 

For the Prince of Darkness any longer)
