I caught the darkness/Drinking from your cup/I caught the darkness/Drinking from your cup/I said: Is this contagious?/You said: Just drink it up/I got no future/I know my days are few/The present’s not that pleasant/Just a lot of things to do/I thought the past would last me/But the darkness got that too/I should have seen it coming/It was right behind your eyes/You were young and it was summer/I just had to take a dive/Winning you was easy/But darkness was the prize/I don’t smoke no cigarette/I don’t drink no alcohol/I ain’t had much loving yet/But that’s always been your call/Hey I don’t miss it baby/I got no taste for anything at all/I used to love the rainbow/I used to love the view/I loved the early morning/I’d pretend that it was new/But I caught the darkness baby/And I got it worse than you/I caught the darkness
