You always give me something to help me understand
Turn those tracks around me one more time
But all you give is killing me, I can't turn around

I'm gettin' loaded on a darker side of town
I don't know who I am on a darker side of town

I came to win some game I played when I was just a boy
I've done too much, have nothing in my life
I understood the rules back then, now I can't decide

I'm gettin' loaded on a darker side of town
I'm gettin' wasted on a darker side of town

Oh, I give to you everything I've got
Even start again to make you smile, yeah
But my luck's run out, my head is burnt, I can't turn around

I'm gettin' loaded on a darker side of town
I'm drownin' in some wine on a darker side of town

Darker side of town
