the darkest side (bootleg bens electro-acoustic version)
Love Was the air in your mother’s lungs When her father tore her fences down Plastic bags and the panadol was out
Love With your sold Gibson 335 And her 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 father’s 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
Love That was alive in the olden days And put to death in this golden age By a 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 father’s cry and the softest sigh when I’m empty But if you leave me I’ll get me gone and drowned face down muddy in the water (?)
Oh when I die… When I die…
Die I’m alive When I lose I 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 father’s cry and the softest sigh when I’m empty But if you leave me I’ll hello goodbye I’m shining knight look I’m deadman (?)
Oh when I die… When I die… When I die…
When I die I’m alive When I lose I find My identity
