Dark Side
A.R.D.I. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave out your famous dream, oh
You say your man don't take the time
Don't see no fancy ring, ah yeah
Falling in love on the first date
I don't even know your last name
You're living off daddy's money, but honey
We only do things in the worst way
Let your hair down and dance with me
Give into your dark side, your dark side
I've seen the way you look at me, it feels right, ah
There's no need convincing me of things you should
Oh, I know you got a dark side
Oh, won't you give it to me?
My lips are numb, can't walk the line
Why don't you try it too?
I like the red, hope you don't mind
And it tastes so good on you, ooh, yeah
Falling in love on the first date
I don't even know your last name
You're living off daddy's money, but honey
Even though these are our best days
We only do things in the worst way
Let your hair down, won't you, babe?
Give into your dark side, your dark side
I've seen the way you look at me, it feels right, ah
There's no need convincing me of things you should
Oh, I know you got a dark side
Oh, won't you give it to me?
This life that you've known was in control
Now that the lights start to go, it fills your soul
Just close your eyes, let the night take you whole
Take you whole, let it go, let it go, oh
Give into your dark side, your dark side
I've seen the way you look at me, it feels right, ah
There's no need convincing me of things you should
Oh, I know you got a dark side
Oh, won't you, babe?
Give into your dark side, your dark side
I've seen the way you look at me, it feels right, ah
There's no need convincing me of things you should
Oh, I know you got a dark side
Oh, won't you give it to me?
In A.R.D.I.'s song Dark Side, the singer invites a woman to let go of her inhibitions and embrace her darker side. The opening lines talk about the woman's thoughts and dreams, but also mentions that she's unhappy in her current relationship- her man doesn't take the time for her and doesn't have a fancy ring to show. The singer then admits that he's falling in love with this woman on their first date, and though he doesn't know her last name or that she lives off her father's money, he wants her to let her hair down and dance with him.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "give into your dark side" and speaks to the attraction and chemistry between the singer and the woman. He's seen the way she looks at him and knows that she has a dark side that she's hiding. The second verse continues the theme of falling in love quickly and recklessly, with both the singer and the woman being reckless with their behavior. The bridge of the song speaks to a shift in control- the woman has always lived a safe and controlled life, but now as the lights go down, she's starting to let go and embrace the unknown. The song ends with the repeated plea for her to give into her dark side.
Overall, the song seems to be about letting go of inhibitions and living in the moment, embracing the darker parts of ourselves that we may keep hidden. The singer is drawn to the woman's darkness and wants her to embrace it fully, free from the constraints of her current life.

Let's have an open discussion about what's going on in your head
Leave out your famous dream, oh
Exclude your well-known aspiration from the conversation
You say your man don't take the time
You believe your partner doesn't give you enough attention
Don't see no fancy ring, ah yeah
You don't care about materialistic items, like a big engagement ring
Falling in love on the first date
Developing strong romantic feelings from the very beginning
I don't even know your last name
I barely know anything about you
You're living off daddy's money, but honey
You're able to support yourself solely because of your father's wealth
Even though these are our best days
Despite this being the peak of our lives
We only do things in the worst way
We tend to make poor choices
Let your hair down and dance with me
Relax and have fun with me
Give into your dark side, your dark side
Embrace the parts of you that are often kept hidden or repressed
I've seen the way you look at me, it feels right, ah
I've noticed the way you gaze at me, and it seems like there's chemistry
There's no need convincing me of things you should
You don't have to persuade me to do things that you think are right
Oh, I know you got a dark side
I'm aware that there are aspects of you that are less than pure
Oh, won't you give it to me?
Why not reveal your dark side to me?
My lips are numb, can't walk the line
I'm a bit intoxicated and having trouble staying balanced
Why don't you try it too?
Why don't you indulge with me?
I like the red, hope you don't mind
I enjoy the taste of alcohol and I hope you're okay with it
And it tastes so good on you, ooh, yeah
I think you look good enjoying yourself with me
This life that you've known was in control
The life you've been living has been predetermined, and you've followed the expected path
Now that the lights start to go, it fills your soul
As the darkness descends, it brings a sense of satisfaction
Just close your eyes, let the night take you whole
Allow yourself to fully succumb to the darkness
Take you whole, let it go, let it go, oh
Fully immerse yourself in the experience of letting go
Oh, won't you, babe?
Why not indulge with me?
