I thought this shit was sold out Em D (Hello darkness, my old friend) D But it's only the opening act, it's early, don't overreact D Then something told me relax D And just hope for the show to be packed Em Don't wanna hit the stage before they fill each row to the max Em 'Cause that'd be totally wack Em D You can't murder a show nobody's at (Hello darkness, my old friend) D But what if nobody shows? Panic mode D 'Bout to snap and go motherfuckin' wacko at any second Em 'Bout to cancel the show just as fans below rush the entrance Em Plan is a go to wreck shit, cameras in all directions (Hello darkness, my old friend) D The press is 'bout to go ape shit bananas on all the networks D Commando with extra clips, I got ammo for all the hecklers Em I'm armed to the teeth, another Valium, fall off the bed Em Hit the ground and crawl to the dresser Em D Alcohol on my breath as I reach for the scope D I'm blackin' out, I'm all out of meds D With them benzodiazepines gone Em Now it's just magazines sprawled out on the floor Em Fuck the media, I'm goin' all out, this is war Em (Hello darkness, my old friend) [CHORUS] D And I don't wanna be alone in the darkness (Yeah) D I don't wanna be alone in the darkness Em I don't wanna be alone in the darkness anymore (Hello darkness, my old friend) [VERSE THREE] D People start to show up, time to start the show up D It's :05 PM and the curtain starts to go up Em And I'm already sweatin', but I'm locked and loaded Em For rapid fire spittin' for all the concert-goers Em D Scopes for sniper vision, surprise from out of nowhere D As I slide the clip in from inside the hotel D Em Leanin' out the window, going Keyser Söze Em Finger on the trigger, but I'm a licensed owner Em C With no prior convictions, so loss, the sky's the limit G So my supplies infinite, strapped like I'm a soldier G C Got 'em hopping over walls and climbing fences G Some of them John Travolta, staying alive by inches (Hello darkness, my old friend) D Cops are knockin', oh fuck, thought I blocked the entrance D Guess show time is over D Em No suicide note, just a note for target distance Em But if you'd like to know the reason why I did this Em D You'll never find a motive, truth is I have no idea D I am just as stumped, no signs of mental illness D Em Just tryin' to show ya the reason why we're so fucked Em 'Cause by the time it's over, won't make the slightest difference Em D (Hello darkness, my old friend) [CHORUS] D And I don't wanna be alone in the darkness D I don't wanna be alone in the darkness Em I don't wanna be alone in the darkness anymore (Hello darkness, my old friend) [OUTRO] Yeah, we do have some breaking news from the Associated Press right now Just gonna bring that up because we are hearing— We have told you that the shooter is dead And we have just learned that police are saying that the Las Vegas shooter killed himself That is the bartender there at Mandalay Bay and I believe we're going to hear more from her Yeah, we just wanted to share that with you You can see behind me here, this is what he looks like Now we did just tell you that police just earlier...
