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
Love, was a sold Gibson 335
And your 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
Love, that was alive in the olden days
Been put to death in this golden age
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
When I die
Die, I'm alive, when I lose, I'd 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
When I die
When I die
When I die, I'm alive
When I lose, I'd find my identity
