Phoenix cover
04. Beautiful Darkside
Album: Phoenix
Artist: The Classic Crime
         
 

The faster I find the bottom
The sooner I turn it around
It seems as though I’ve forgotten just how far down
I can go in an instant
And I can take you there
I can take all my friends and family and I won’t care

‘cause I have the most reckless heart when I try
and I have the most beautiful darkside
I need to find some meaning
Something true to believe in
‘cause left to my own devices
the beautiful darkside wins
the beautiful darkside wins

always one for a good time
always one for extremes
until the fabric of life starts tearing at the seams
and I can never remember
when it started to turn
I just simply forget all of the things I’ve learned

Someday I will die
Could be today or tonight
The truth Is I’m terrified
That I have wasted time

Have I just wasted time?

‘cause I have the most reckless heart when I try
and I have the most beautiful darkside
I need to find some meaning
Something true to believe in
I’m terrified of seeing
The beautiful darkside win
The beautiful darkside win
