Darkerside

There's a darker side to everything
That's why I tend to try not to think
There's a darker part to you and me
We're never who we want
But I guess that's meant to be

I'm pasting grey words over sun-streaked beats
Like I never met someone as dismal as me
The words make you frown, don't put the pages down
Cause when was the last time you forced yourself to think?
Sometimes I feel like my brain was on the shelf
And I picked it out just to mess with myself
Cause there's another side to me, the darkness only helps
And I can't say it's me but I can't say it's someone else

There's a darker side to everything
That's why I tend to try not to think
There's a darker part to you and me
We're never who we want
But I guess that's meant to be

This is not something you can wash out with the sun
This sits beside me every day until I'm gone
Cause I live between happy and haunted
But that's never what I wanted
So process me, take these words to sleep
If there's any way I won't be alone this is it, it has to be
Terrified of never being what I wanted
So I'll flip between happy and haunted

There's a darker side to everything
That's why I tend to try not to think
There's a darker part to you and me
We're never who we want
But I guess that's meant to be

This is not something you can wash out with the sun
This sits beside me every day until I'm gone
Cause I live between happy and haunted
I live between happy and haunted
