Darker than Midnight

[Verse] In shadows deep, where secrets sleep, A twisted waltz, the hours creep, My ex, he thought he could just leave, But darling, I’ve a tricked-up sleeve. [Verse 2] His whispers cold as winter’s bite, He'd haunt my dreams, he'd steal my nights, But now this dance, it’s mine to lead, And love’s vengeance, oh it feeds. [Chorus] Darker than midnight, my love’s caress, A fate he won’t escape or guess, With every step I take, I weave, A web that won't let him leave. [Verse 3] The jazz plays sultry, notes of sin, He’s unaware the noose is thin, In shadows, deep, my eyes alight, Tonight's the night I win this fight. [Bridge] In the moon’s cruel glare, I spin my tale, Each note, a whisper, each chord, a wail, His loss, my gain, our twisted tryst, He’ll find no peace, only this. [Chorus] Darker than midnight, my heart’s caress, A fate he won’t escape or guess, With every step I take, I weave, A web that won’t let him leave.
