Letra de ' Shoppers Beef ' de The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die

You cannot defeat the darkness, you can only be the light - fuck that
At the core of night I couldn’t imagine
Anything I’d like less than to be the light
And in this I mean literal darkness
Literal light and literal night
Why would I want to?
I liked you like I like the dark

In it, I feel my body in a different way
Because like when my body was with yours
In the dark my body doesn’t end at my finger tips
Instead bleeding out into a space I can’t calculate the mass of
But that I know is massive
I am a giant in these spaces
I am more than a giant
I am limitless
We are limitless

Darkness is an unending container
I am a gas seeking to fill its volume or dissipate to harmlessness within it
Let myself be absorbed into something that I am also an agent of
Until it and I are both malleable
Next darkness is the backseat of my dead best friend’s sisters car
And every potentially stubbed toe or missed step on the staircase
Are the bobbing headlights that haunt your parent’s neighborhood

Coming into focus through the fog
Slowly bouncing towards us like specters
While we lay silently in cover
Save for the percussion of our hearts
And the exuberance of our lungs
And every soft carpet fiber
Every safely navigated hallway taking me deeper into dark
Is your charged touch sending jolts of current
Waltzing through my muscles
Is your breathy way of saying my name

After the hallway I stumble to my bed
Isn’t this exciting?
Feeling out into a comfortable unknown
I can float out into the dark until I’ve reach land again
If there’s land to be had
If there isn’t that’s fine
I feel safer now floating out into the precipice
I liked you like I like the dark
Why would I aim to defeat it?
