I Will Follow You Into the Dark
By Death Cab for Cutie

Love of mine,
Someday you will die.
But I'll be close behind,
I'll follow you into the dark.
No blinding light,
Or tunnels to gates of white.
Just our hands clasped so tight,
Waiting for the hint of a spark.

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied,
Illuminate the no's
On their vacancy signs.
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks,
Then I'll follow you into the dark.

In Catholic School,
As vicious as Roman rule,
I got my knuckles bruised
By a lady in black.
And I held my tongue
As she told me,"Son,
Fear is the heart of love."
So I never went back.

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied,
Illuminate the no's
On their vacancy signs.
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks,
Then I'll follow you into the dark.

You and me,
We've seen everything to see.
From Bangkok to Calgary....
And the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down,
The time for sleep is now.
There's nothing to cry about,
Cause we'll hold each other soon,
In the blackest of rooms.

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied,
Illuminate the no's
On their vacancy signs.
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks,
Then I'll follow you into the dark.
I'll follow you into the dark.

I have had this song on repeat for the past three days....and according to iTunes...I have listened to it roughly 265 times in those three days. Don't judge me.

I really like this song...it's quiet, pensive tone; the sweet thoughtful lyrics...and the overall thought behind it. Hence why it has been on repeat for days.

When it comes down to it, this is what I have been thinking about lately....who would...who will follow me into the dark? Anyone? No one?

Two cats....they will. Two beautiful black cats...my babies.

That's all I need, right?
