Meet Me In The Dark - Melissa Etheridge

Keep your eyes down, keep your head lowered

Keep to your self dear, do not tell a soul

You know it’s wrong what they’ve been sayin'

And you knew all along that I would have to go Find the place where light shines on my reflection

A place where I can stand upon my own

Not down on my knees

Until then please

Meet me in the dark

Meet me in the shadows

Past the old graveyard

On Eisenhower road

Meet me where the storms

Blow out on their own dear

Meet me in the dark

Never let me go

I know everyone has their unspoken fear

That eats away their senses and their humanity

They carry all their secrets every night down to the river

And they try so hard to drown them

They wont do that to me Cause I’m working hard saving all my money

And the tips in this jar will by a brand new set of wings

For my mercury

Until then please

I could never hide this little light of mine

If God made a mistake then I should die before I wake

Maybe it’s my fate to swim against this tide

Swallowing my pride

Keep your eyes down;

say that you don’t know me For I could not survive if they took you away
