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
And 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
And 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
Have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
But it'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
And 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
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Aww this song makes me think of an old couple who have been in love all their life, and have done everything together, and now one of them is dying and the other one can't live without them. So when one of them dies, they both do, because they had each other their whole lives and once they are separated there is no more to living, they've done it all.

This is a very beautiful and touching song. I hadn't heard it for awhile until the other day I decided to look it up, and its even better then i remembered! I've changed a lot in the past few years and had to deal with a lot of deaths so now this song is more then just another good song. It has meaning and emotion.

One of the most beautifully written songs in recent memory..... The lyrical content and melody are very moving... and touching. You can "feel" this song and visualize it in a similar way as the great songs of yesteryear.

I don't think it should matter whether a band is mainstream or not. If their music is creative and enjoyable (sometimes enjoyable is enough) then they're good. if its unoriginal and boring, then they suck. Thats it. this song is both inspiring and original, thus, death cab is good, nay, great.

let them do what they want. i agree that mainstream or w/e u wanna call it isnt the best thing , because music shouldnt be about money it should be about music. thats it. however i decide not to take sides on this.
amazing song.

I don't think the album is "mainstream," per se... It's just that different kinds of people can enjoy it, but it's still different from a lot of popular music out there. They're just starting to get wider recognition, that's all.
FlavorOfTheWeek 12/11/2005 22:05:48
this song gives me goosebumps.
its my favorite from Death Cab<3
FamousMV2 23/10/2005 22:05:39
this song is beautiful...it has helped me soo much with what i am going through..my love just passed away a month ago..he was only 16 i was in love. this song helps me soo much i love it!

This is a gorgeous song, I love 'Plans'. Who are we to decide what is mainstream and what isn't? If a guy in an office gets promoted, is he selling out? No, he's just seeking out better oppurtunities and getting paid more for it. The same goes for musicians. I hate this 'sell out' phrase. Anyway, must go off and polish the cat...
sharethewealth 12/10/2005 19:39:37
wow, who are you to decide what's mainstream, i wonder?... i saw the Death Cab last night and am feeling pretty damn good about their performance as well as newest album... cheers to the Death Cab and praise to the dark.
rushledwho 16/09/2005 04:34:07
yea i as kinda dissapointed that they went to atlantic from barsuk but at least they didnt sell out even thgouht the album sounds quite mainstream. i was afraid they might even turn emo. but this song is amazing.
emoloser 03/09/2005 00:34:25
beautiful song

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time.
