[Verse 1]
You think you're pretty special don't you?
Handsome face and fairly cultured
The devil in the dark
When we talk I'm reminded why
I thought it'd be you to take me high
You were an angel in the night

[Pre-Chorus]
But when I die
Oh when i die
Don't waste your flowers on me

[Verse 2]
And you found yourself another man
Well that's okay, I understand
I didn't want you anyway
When I get high I still see you there
With your pretty face and your cultured stare
Oh and then you just fade away

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh when I die
Oh when I die
Don't waste your flowers on me
Oh when I go
Don't let me go
Put your arms around me, yeah
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't want to be an island
But you fuel the silence

It was you in the dark
You question why we bothered at all
Because I don't want to be an island

[Bridge]
I forget where was and for a moment I was lost
Oh I forget where I was and for a moment I was lost

No I don't want to be an island
No I don't want to be an island

[Outro]
You think you're pretty special don't you?
Handsome face and faded culture
The devil in the dark
