The Darkest Side

(One, two, three, four)

Love, it's the air in your mother's lungs

When her father tore her fences down

Plastic bags and the Panadol was out

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Love was a sold Gibson 335

And her father's dream died that night

Just to keep that electricity on

And it's the darkest side of my heart that dies when you come to me

And it's the golden ticket I win when you kill my enemies

I hear the farthest cry and the softest sigh when I'm empty

But if you leave me, I'll hide in a game like SimCity

Oh when I die I'm alive and when I lose I find my identity

Son, if I died on my bedroom floor

Would you cry on your bedroom floor

And tattoo my name underneath your arm?

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Love, that was alive in the old days

Been put to death in this golden age

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

By our colour TV

And it's the darkest side of my heart that dies when you come to me

And it's the golden ticket I win when you kill my enemies

I hear the farthest cry and the softest sigh when I'm empty

But if you leave me I'll get me gone and drown face down, muddy in the water

Oh when I die, mm-hm-mm

When I die, mm-hmm-mm

Die, I'm alive, when I lose I find my identity

Love was those dark clouds on the Friday

It was a holy shaking earthquake

And you were stuck up the tree

And it's the darkest side of my heart that dies when you come to me

Oh it's the golden ticket I win when you kill my enemies

I hear the farthest cry and the softest sigh when I'm empty

But if you leave me I'd hello goodbye and I don't shine at night, look I'm dead man

Oh when I die, mm-hmm-mm

When I die, mm-hmm-mm

When I die,mm-hmm-mm

When I die I'm alive, when I lose I find my identity
