Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Proof...
Truth...

Suspect I've rejected
I have wounded
Truth be told
I've been bad
Ashamed
To blame

Horrified all over me
I listened, I listened
I listened, my love

Mister, punish me
I love thee

I'm guilty, I'm guilty
I'm guitly, my love

Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside
Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside

He left me overseas
I turned to a mouth
I could please

Everyone has a dark side
Why don't you like mine

Shame...
Blame...

Sentenced to life
Imprisoned by fate
Shame, blame
It's the shame game
But I will love again

Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside
Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside

He left me overseas
I turned to a mouth
I could please

Everyone has a dark side
Why don't you like mine

Cross my heart
Is powerful with the course of love
Of love

It was locality, morality
Dictating prison trap
I was following, grazing
Wasting, accepting
In my good girl suit

I was lying and cheating
And sucking and kissing
In my bad girl boots

Ahhh ahhhh
Ahhh ahhhh
Do you swear the truth and nothing but?
No

I will love again
With my good
And my bad parts

Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside
Meet me on the dark side
Enter from the inside

Meet me on the dark side
(He left me overseas)
Enter from the inside
(I turned to a mouth)
Meet me on the dark side
(I could please)
Enter from the inside

Meet me on the dark side
(Everyone has a dark side)
Enter from the inside
(Why don't you like mine)
