The Dark It Comes (avec Carl Barât)

.

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark it comes but I can't say when

.

Sweetness sit down I've got something to say

I f*cked up again in a terrible way

I'm a long way from home, I've done wrong I'm afraid

But I need you to remember the pact that we made

.

Tell me dear lover, things can't be that bad

This won't be the first time that you make me sad

But if you have done what I think it may be

Your words will be worthless and you will be free

.

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark it comes but I can't say when

.

Love twisted me up with its passion and claws

Now it haunts me to madness with the ghost of remorse

She was an evil harlot who threatened our cause

And now she lies here on the bathroom floor

.

Oh lord please have mercy, oh what did you do

You did this to hurt me, tell me it's not true

I know that you f*cked her and that's what it's worth

Was she better than me? Your heart must be cursed

.

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark it comes but I can't say when

.

I'm lonely, I'm lost and I'm wild at sea

Won't you please let me in, I can barely breathe

I'm broken, I'm lonely, I'm lost as can be

But darling, darling, it has to be

.

I was lonely and foolish, she was nothing to me

Like a moth to a candle, I was too drunk to see

My sweetness, my sweetness, I was just a boy

And now I'm a killer, my life is destroyed

.

Oh come to me baby, she was nothing to us

She's no longer around, it was just your drunk lust

Whatever you did, there's a pact that we made

From the day we first kissed till we lie in our graves

.

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark is coming but I can't say when

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark is coming but I can't say when

.
