Darker Days - Just Slick

Promises, promises I'm feeling burned You taught me a lesson I didn't want to learn Why did I come here? Please tell me again Why did you ask me? Don't say you forget I long for, I long for I long for my home I long for a land where No man was ever known With no neurosis And no psychosis No psychoanalysis And no sadness I'll pick up the pieces I'll carry on somehow Tape the broken parts together Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Limp this love around Promises, promises I'm feeling burned You taught me a lesson I didn't want to learn

I tried, you know, just to tow the line Love all the neighbors and live in the light Sure I stumbled sometimes Self-contained; a convenient lie Every source of pain, every sting of pride had to come from the outside But you You won't even fight me fair Wait for the darkness catch me unaware Yeah, you pull me close Then you twist the knife I don't wanna live with the kinds of trouble I keep finding myself in Mirror to my left, and mirror to my right A void stretching out on either side Is it your face or mine? Try to leave a mark We carve our names All cornered animals behave the same then get eaten alive So that's it I wash my hands, I cut my ties to the world and its vicious appetites Yes I am ready to die Yeah, I'm ready, I'm ready to die I don't wanna live with the kinds of trouble I keep finding myself in Something's gotta give when the water keeps on rising and the walls are closing in How long can I keep this tired act together? It's a short ambulance ride and then the waiting room forever So tell me how do I make the right move now? Prepare me for the moment when my mind goes out I am trying hard to follow the sound You won't even fight me fair Wait for the darkness catch me unaware Then you twist the knife

I'm parting ways, part of me Rain, my darkness Why does it break my heart? Pride, suddenly over my head You're my dark Why does it break my heart? Sometimes I hear your voice I'm overcome Oh my darker side, I'll find your light I know you better than that I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break Stay down, you're safe now in hiding Face down, your pale heart is lightning Sometimes I hear your voice I'm overcome Oh, my darker side, I'll find your light I know you better than that I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break Oh, my darker side, I'll find your light I know you better than that I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break I'm parting ways, part of me Rain, my darkness Why does it break my heart? Oh, my darker side, I'll find your light I know you better than that I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break I'll carry the weight, I'll carry the weight Until the moment I break

Looking into your eyes, I see all I want to be And I don't want it to end If I could only put to words the way I see you I only know I have an angel with me now And when I fall asleep, you're all that I see You're in my thoughts and all of my prayers I wish I could mean all that you mean to me My angel without wings My angel I wish you could see all that you mean to me But I could never find the words to tell you And when I fall asleep, you're all that I see You're in my thoughts and all of my prayers I wish I could mean all that you mean to me And when I fall asleep you're all that I see You're in my thoughts and all of my prayers I wish I could mean all that you mean to me My angel without wings
