  1. The sun rolls slowly down again

    Le soleil roule à nouveau lentement

  2. The dark it comes but I can't say when

    L'obscurité arrive mais je ne peux pas dire quand

  3. Sweetness sit down

    Douceur, assieds-toi

  4. I've got something to say

    J'ai quelque chose à dire

  5. I fucked up again in a terrible way

    J'ai encore merdé d'une manière terrible

  6. I'm a long way from home

    Je suis loin de chez moi

  7. I've done wrong I'm afraid

    J'ai mal agi, j'ai peur

  8. But I need you to remember the pact that we made

    Mais j'ai besoin que tu te souviennes du pacte que nous avons fait

  1. Tell me dear lover things can't be that bad

    Dis-moi, chère amante, ça ne peut pas être si mauvais

  2. This won't be the first time that you make me sad

    Ce ne sera pas la première fois que tu me rends triste

  3. But if you have done what I think it may be

  4. Your words will be worthless and you will be free

  5. The sun rolls slowly down again

  6. The dark it comes but I can't say when

  7. Love twisted me up with its passion and claws

  8. Now it haunts me to madness with the ghost of remorse

  9. She was evil harlot who threatened our cause

  10. And now she lies here on the bathroom floor

  11. Oh lord please have mercy! Oh what did you do

  12. You did this to hurt me tell me it's not true

  13. I know that you fucked her and that's what it's worth

    I know that you slept with her and that's the worth of it

  14. Was she better than me? Your heart must be cursed

  15. The sun rolls slowly down again

  16. The dark it comes but I can't say when

    The darkness falls but I can't say when

  17. I'm lonely I'm lost and I'm wild at sea

  18. Won't you please let me in, I can barely breathe

  19. I'm broken I'm lonely I'm lost as can be

  20. But darling darling it has to be

  21. I was lonely and foolish she was nothing to me

  22. Like a moth to a candle I was too drunk to see

  23. My sweetness my sweetness I was just a boy

  24. And now I'm a killer my life is destroyed

  25. Oh come to me baby she was nothing to us

  26. She's no longer around it was just your drunk lust

  27. Whatever you did there's a pact that we made

  28. From the day we first kissed till we lie in our graves

  29. The sun rolls slowly down again

  30. The dark is coming but I can't say when

  31. The sun rolls slowly down again

  32. The dark is coming but I can't say when

  33. Ah...

  34. Ah...

The Dark, It Comes

The sun rolls slowly down again

Le soleil roule à nouveau lentement

The dark it comes but I can't say when

L'obscurité arrive mais je ne peux pas dire quand

Sweetness sit down

Douceur, assieds-toi

I've got something to say

J'ai quelque chose à dire

I fucked up again in a terrible way

J'ai encore merdé d'une manière terrible

I'm a long way from home

Je suis loin de chez moi

I've done wrong I'm afraid

J'ai mal agi, j'ai peur

But I need you to remember the pact that we made

Mais j'ai besoin que tu te souviennes du pacte que nous avons fait

Tell me dear lover things can't be that bad

Dis-moi, chère amante, ça ne peut pas être si mauvais

This won't be the first time that you make me sad

Ce ne sera pas la première fois que tu me rends triste

But if you have done what I think it may be

Your words will be worthless and you will be free

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark it comes but I can't say when

Love twisted me up with its passion and claws

Now it haunts me to madness with the ghost of remorse

She was evil harlot who threatened our cause

And now she lies here on the bathroom floor

Oh lord please have mercy! Oh what did you do

You did this to hurt me tell me it's not true

I know that you fucked her and that's what it's worth

I know that you slept with her and that's the worth of it

Was she better than me? Your heart must be cursed

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark it comes but I can't say when

The darkness falls but I can't say when

I'm lonely I'm lost and I'm wild at sea

Won't you please let me in, I can barely breathe

I'm broken I'm lonely I'm lost as can be

But darling darling it has to be

I was lonely and foolish she was nothing to me

Like a moth to a candle I was too drunk to see

My sweetness my sweetness I was just a boy

And now I'm a killer my life is destroyed

Oh come to me baby she was nothing to us

She's no longer around it was just your drunk lust

Whatever you did there's a pact that we made

From the day we first kissed till we lie in our graves

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark is coming but I can't say when

The sun rolls slowly down again

The dark is coming but I can't say when

Ah...

Ah...
