Dark Side
Between Colors Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The killing man has gone on a quick spree
Animals are dressed all in corsets
Gloomy filthy pets
I was born to play on teeth of steel
Till the lungs are dead and the blood real
Till my fingers break and nails decay
Dying my own way
The killing man has gone on a quick spree
Animals are dressed all in corsets
Gloomy filthy pets
I was born to play on teeth of steel
Till the lungs are dead and the blood real
Till my fingers break and nails decay
Dying my own way
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
I see the sky
You see the clouds
Light of the moon
Dark of the sun
The wind that speaks
The quiet storm
You only see
My darkest form
I see the sky
You see the clouds
Light of the moon
Dark of the sun
The wind that speaks
The quiet storm
You only see
My darkest form
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
What is it that you want
Is it that you see
What is this hate
Where is all that hope
All of that luck
All that is rightful
You say you're a saint
I am a plague
You want me to disintegrate
So you wouldn't see
Won't have to face
The dark side of you
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
WHERE'S THE FIRE
WHERE'S MY LUCK
WHERE'S THE HOPE THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT
WHY IS IT THAT YOU ONLY SEE
THE DARK SIDE OF ME
The lyrics of "Dark Side" by Between Colors describe the frustration and confusion felt by someone who is constantly judged and misunderstood by others. The imagery of judges hanging in court and a killing spree suggests that the singer may have a dark past or a troubled history. The use of animals in corsets as a symbol of confinement and oppression adds to the sense of being trapped and judged.
The repeated questioning of "where's the fire, where's my luck, where's the hope that you talked about" suggests a longing for something more, a desire for understanding and acceptance. The line "why is it that you only see the dark side of me" speaks to the feeling of being defined by one's flaws and mistakes, rather than being seen as a whole person with strengths and weaknesses.
The second half of the song turns the focus onto the other person, questioning their motives and asking what they really want. The line "you say you're a saint, I am a plague" highlights the contrast between the two characters and the tension between them. Overall, the lyrics of "Dark Side" explore themes of judgment, misunderstanding, and the desire for acceptance and understanding.
