DarkSide Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm a villain and a beast
A monster underneath your sheets
'Cause I'm not exactly who you think I am
I'm a giant and a ghost
I disappear before you know
But tonight I'm gonna hold you in my hands
I don't want you scared at all
Analyzing when we talk
So my lips have sealed the way I feel inside

[Pre-Hook]
'Cause what's done is done
Isn't done yet
Nothing's imminent
But I think about it every minute
Of everyday
Of everyday
Enough's enough
But I'm not giving in, yeah
Even if it sends him over the edge

[Hook 1]
'Cause everybody has a dark side
And I'm across
Never meant to be the bad guy
But now I'm lost
Now I don't wanna waste your time
Or piss you off
'Cause everybody has a dark side
[Verse 2]
I'm the devil and I'm cursed
It feels like every moment's worse
I would sell my soul to make this go away
There's a good to every bad
Here's the thing, now understand
I believe that we can make a change

[Pre-Hook]
What's done is done
Isn't done yet
Nothing's imminent
But I think about it every minute
Of everyday
Of everyday
Enough's enough
No I'm not giving in, yeah
Even if it sends him over the edge

[Hook 1]
'Cause everbody has a dark side
And I'm across
Never meant to be the bad guy
But now I'm lost
Now I don't wanna waste your time
Or piss you off
'Cause everybody has a dark side
[Hook 2]
Before we need a second chance
There's the one we have
But I know that you and I are pulling away
Everybody has a dark side
Everybody has a dark side

[Bridge]
Oh
I don't wanna end this on a low
I only wanna fix it 'cause it's broke
I don't wanna take one for the road
'Cause we'll make us whole

[Hook 1]
Everbody has a dark side
And I'm across
Never meant to be the bad guy
But now I'm lost
Now I don't wanna waste your time
Or piss you off
'Cause everybody has a dark side

[Hook 2]
Before we need a second chance
There's the one we have
But I know that you and I are pulling away
Everybody has a dark side
Everybody has a dark side

About

Genius Annotation

“DarkSide” is the first song from Zara Larsson’s Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself EP.

The song is about Zara’s relationship with a particular boy in which she showed her “dark side"—she made an irreversible mistake and lied to her boyfriend about it. With guilty conscience, she questions whether she can continue the relationship as before.
