It started at loose end
with an honest look
into a splintered soul
Fill it with the ‘good stuff’
cause we can’t get enough
of being reputable
Get ‘em on board
Here’s to the good guys
on our side
Got no time
for blind eyes
no
We thought we’d found
the truth in kindness
but we forgot
we forgot the
downside
Don’t go slighting your darkside
and all the damage you could do
Don’t go thinking you’re all that
and assume you found the truth
You know your darkside
the shadows lurk beneath your heart
Know your darkside
the years of fears and aches that hide in you
You tell us that you preach love
that it’s the only way
but all we see is heat
And who will be
Eckles eyes
make sure we do it right
be respectable
So cutting us down
Call us the bad guys
Making sides
Got no time
to revise
no
You thought you’d find the truth
in ‘kind’ words
but you can’t see
can’t see the
downside
Don’t go slighting your darkside
and all the damage you can do
Don’t go thinking you’re alright
and assume you found the truth
You know your darkside
the shadows lurk beneath your heart
Know your darkside
the years of fears and aches that hide
I know you hurt
I see it
I do
But is this the way
to change it
Yeah, we all hurt
different ways
we do
Then what
pray tell
should we do
(god only knows)
Don’t go slighting your darkside
and all the damage you could do
Don’t go thinking you’re all that
and assume you found the truth
You know your darkside
the shadows lurk beneath your heart
Know your darkside
the years of fears and aches that hide in you
The shadows lurk beneath my heart
I know my darkside
The years of fears and aches that hide
in me
Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday.
This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon. quiksilv26
