SOUNDTRACK: Used To The Darkness by Des Rocs
Soundtrack to Handled by Romilly King
Used To The Darkness is my favorite Des Rocs song. The first time I heard it, I knew it would make a good bookish soundtrack. I’ve been saving it for that perfect book. Handled is that book. I see the song reflecting the way Nathan’s perspectives and attitude evolved while interacting with Gray in his first Witnessing assigning.

I’ve made mistakes
The Lord struck me down
Caught in a landslide
Lost underground
I hear them gates
Swing open wide
Come close to midnight
Hell sent me downAnd then my eyes got used to the darkness
And everyone that I knew
Was lost and so long forgotten after youNow would you break before you twist the knife?
Yeah, would you take my hand and take a life?
I’m too damn young to give up on the light
I’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darkness
I’m just a man, I’m only flesh and bone
I can’t bring it back on everything I’ve done
And now there’s no-one else left to love
I’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darknessSweet smell of roses
Have come at last
One fist of earth fights
To come join the rest
And then my eyes got used to the darkness
And everyone that I knew
Was lost and so long forgotten after youNow would you break before you twist the knife?
Yeah, would you take my hand and take a life?
I’m too damn young to give up on the light
I’m used to the darknessI’m used to the darkness
I’m just a man, I’m only flesh and bone
I can’t bring it back on everything I’ve done
And now there’s no one else left to love
I’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darkness
I got used to the darkness too
I got used to the darkness for you
I got used to the darkness tooYes I did
Would you break before you twist the knife?
Would you take my hand and take a life?
I’m too damn young to give up on the light
I’m used to the darknessI’m used to the darkness
I’m just a man, I’m only flesh and bone
I can’t bring it back on everything I’ve done
And now there’s no-one else left to loveI’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darkness
I’m used to the darkness -

-
I know pain, I know dread
Wicked veins, they turn to lead
Tears don’t stop the fire
It’s killing timeBack from the dead
See, their eyes got nothing left
Kiss me, I am the cobra
It’s killing timeOh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me dieAm I here, am I right
With a name that I never liked
Rip me out the moment
It’s killing timeFear in the dark
Oh, these thoughts, yeah, they’ll never stop
Meet my friend, the lonesome
It’s killing timeOh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me die
Oh, let me live, oh, let me live or let me dieOoh
Ooh, ooh
My love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, whoa
