Covered As: I'll Follow You Into The Dark by Amanda Palmer
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
Because 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

One of the most beautiful songs they've ever written. It makes me feel weird just listening to this, it's so good.

Wow.

The timing, catchiness, and guitarwork of a song by the Shins with the beauty of Death Cab.

Great change of pace.

This song, no matter when I listen to it, will get a rise from me, and actually make me cry. It's the most beautiful song on the album, but has a way of being the saddest too.

Oh yes, definately one of my two favorites on the album. A great song. I think my girlfriend likes it when I sing along with it to her, which probably helps why I like it so much.

I recently went to their concert and they left the stage and i was so dissapointed that they didnt play this song, but then they came back for the encore and someone handed Ben his acoustic and started to play the riff and i almost went nuts.

I agree that its unlike any song by them, and for that matter, any song I've ever heard before. It's so soft and beautiful.
