In the Dark

"In The Dark" is the ninth track off Camila Cabello's debut solo studio album, Camila. The newspaper The Sun wrote about the song: "This smooth R&B tune is all about trying to get a partner to open up to her to make their relationship work. She hums: “Why can’t you show me who are you in the dark? Show me the scary part."

[Verse 1] Blank stares, faithless Vampires at the same places Shadows, traces I know that you feel me [Refrain] You're runnin’, runnin', runnin', runnin’ Making the rounds with all your fake friends Runnin', runnin' away from it You can strip down without showing skin, yeah [Pre-Chorus] I can see you're scared of your emotions I can see you're hoping, you're not hopeless So why can't you show me? Why can't you show me? I can see you’re looking for distractions I can see you’re tired of the acting So why can't you show me? [Chorus] Who are you in the dark? (I, I) Show me the scary parts (I, I) Who are you when it’s 3AM and you're all alone And L.A. doesn't feel like home? (I, I, I) Who are you in the dark? [Verse 2] Plus one, guest list But you don't even know what her name is Secrets, endless I know that you feel me [Refrain] You’re runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin' (Oh) Making the rounds with all your fake friends (Making) Runnin', runnin' away from it (Away) You can strip down without showing skin, now [Pre-Chorus] I can see you're scared of your emotions I can see you're hoping, you're not hopeless So why can't you show me? Why can't you show me? I can see you're looking for distractions I can see you're tired of the acting So why can't you show me? [Chorus] Who are you in the dark? (I, I) Show me the scary parts (I, I) Who are you when it's 3AM and you're all alone And L.A. doesn't feel like home? (I, I, I) Who are you in the dark? [Bridge] Darling, come on and let me in Darling, all of the strangers are gone They're gone I said, darling, come on and let me see Darling, I promise that I won't run So tell me [Chorus] Who are you in the dark? (I, I) Show me the scary parts (I, I) Who are you when it's 3 AM And you're all alone (And you're all alone) And L.A. doesn't feel like home? (No, I, I, I, yeah) Who are you in the dark? [Outro] Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah Who are you in the dark? Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah Who are you in the dark? Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah Who are you in the dark? Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah Who are you in the dark?
