Lyrics
Darkest Days
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.
Put it down touch it from the atmosphere
make it all the mindless as the face of fear
I never even cared about what I could be
declared on by the war on authority
I doubt you need cause I'm a bad seed
running on adrenaline and licking on greed
I'm tired of being I'm sick of my seeing
looking for the end or playing so that I can finally come clean
Cause I remember one time
something to live for, now so long ago
faces always are changing
lies in disguise for all the things we know
one time something to live for
somehow I've lost my way
those times have pissed away now
there go away my darkest days
Walking every day thinking that I know best
wearing my contempt like a bullet-proof vest
on my way gonna make it all mine
roll it in the gutter just to kill some time
but I was dead wrong and now it's all gone
I won't become the fool that I've abused for so long
the lines played out I've gotta get back
chase away the negative and throw away the useless track
Cause I remember one time
something to live for, now so long ago
faces always are changing
lies in disguise for all the things we know
one time something to live for
somehow I've lost my way
those times have pissed away now
there go away my darkest days
I've seen things I hope I'll never see again
I don't want to have to variate in more than friends
living on the edge at the start of good times
dieing as the record seems to late to go and climbs
one time
something to live for, now so long ago
faces always are changing
lies in disguise for all the things we know
one time something to live for
somehow I've lost my way
those times have pissed away now
there go away my darkest days
