It's a God forsaken place where nobody cares Fill your desires, there's no one to stop and stare It's the dark side I've never told a soul, no I never will Only I can go there, it's my own private hell On the dark side Tell me have you been there, not hard to do Put your mind in the gutter and you leave it on cruise A secret in the corner, an echo down the hall Cold, dark, and dirty, this place it's gotta fall Hiding in the darkness, trying to block the door The lie is getting stronger I've tried to fight but I never refuse Who'll ever know? You know that's the line I use Just a lame excuse I'll test the water and swim around Getting in deeper, guess who's gonna drown? Can you tell me who's it gonna hurt Then it tears you up, pulls you down, kicks you like dirt A secret in the corner, an echo down the hall Cold, dark, and dirty, this place it's gotta fall Hiding in the darkness, trying to block the door The lie is getting stronger You can call it human nature You can call it whatever you want But it only takes a little to leave behind the cross
