Alone in the Dark
Tiesto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When it seems
Like the world around you's breaking
And it feels
Like there's no one else around you
And it's quiet
There's a silence in the darkness
And it sounds
Like the carnival is over

As you walk
In the crowded empty spaces
And you stare
At the emptiness around you
You wanna go
To the city and the bright lights
Get away
From the sinners that surround you

'Cause I will be there
And you will be there
We'll find each other in the dark
And you will see
And I'll see you too
'Cause we'll be together in the dark

'Cause if it's coming for you
Then it's coming for me
'Cause I will be there
'Cause we need each other in the dark
And if it terrifies you
Then it terrifies me
'Cause I will be there
So we've got each other in the dark

As I look into the sky
There's sparks bright as ice
You want me to take you over there
I want you to stay with me
'Cause you're not the only one
The only one

No, no
Don't worry
You're not the only one

'Cause if it's coming for you
Then it's coming for me
But I will be there
'Cause we need each other in the dark
And if it's panicking you
Then it's panicking me
But I will be there
So we've got each other in the dark

In the dark
In the dark
We'll need each other in the dark

In the dark
In the dark
We'll hold each other in the dark





Now we're saved together in the dark
'Cause we've got each other in the dark

Overall Meaning

Tiësto's song 'In The Dark', released in 2007, is about finding solace and comfort with someone else in times of darkness and turmoil. The song describes a feeling of being lost and alone in a world that is breaking. The singer feels like there’s no one around them, and they crave the comfort of another person. The song highlights that the individual doesn't want to be around the sinners that surround them, and they feel like they need to escape to the bright lights of the city to find some solace. The line "And it sounds like the carnival is over" portrays a feeling of disappointment and despair in the singer's life.


However, the song also has a comforting message. The chorus reassures the listener that they are not alone, and that the person they seek comfort from will be there for them, no matter what. The lyrics "'Cause we need each other in the dark", and "we'll hold each other in the dark" highlight the strength of human connection and the need for companionship in times of adversity. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the two people saving each other in the dark and finding solace in their connection.
