Lyrics
Dark Side
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lately I've been becoming aware of your dark side
The private demons hiding there in your dark side
Your mood swings and you rush to turn them loose
But you hurt yourself more than anyone else
With your dark side
There's a promise lost behind your dark side
And a secret no one wants to find in your dark side
Why try to drive the world away
'Cause you can't give and the world can't live
With your dark side
I know that you say to yourself
This is time to be changing
Ah, but there is no easy way
There's a pattern here that's plain to see in your dark side
It repeats itself endlessly in your dark side
