Hello, I'm James Dark.
I'm a solo artist around Cambridge/London UK.
I write and record everything myself - James doesn't play well with the other children.
Lyrics
The man who'll end my life sits with me and explains why,
but oh, I'll just quietly sit and listen.
He talks to me for hours, pours two drinks, hands one to me
and oh, the liquor blurs my vision.
He lights a cigarette. With an orange glow, he exhales smoke
and oh, he's just trying to keep me under.
From his desk he takes a knife, places it in front of me
and oh, it really makes me wonder.
And he wants to be free, but I can't forgive him.
He's so tired of being me, trapped inside these prison walls.
Oh, he wants to be free.
I'm under his command, and five black nails caress my hand
but oh, it's just anticipation.
The world has turned to night, and with the blade by candlelight
I...discover his salvation.
And he wants to be free, but I can't forgive him.
He's so tired of being me, trapped inside these prison walls.
Oh, he wants to be free.
I awake as from a dream, cold as death, and in between
the yawns, I realise I'm alone now.
The man has disappeared, but scratched in skin, I quickly find
the man has left a souvenir.
