[00:07.580]The truth was sold, that's where the trail goes cold
[00:10.350]My shoulders shudder at the thought of puffing my chest out as I walk home alone
[00:14.970]Under the arches, there's this bloke with car boot
[00:18.170]Full of stolen phones, knock off cologne
[00:20.440]And mink carcasses
[00:22.300]Near mint condition from Selfridges, mate
[00:25.160]I see arsonists with business rates etched on the back of empty match boxes and
[00:29.740]Police officers getting their truncheons polished off in the bushes
[00:33.340]Wondering what all the fuss is about and what I'm looking at
[00:37.150]But if looks could kill
[00:38.120]My vacant gaze wouldn't even pierce the skin
[00:40.810]I'm not lazy, ambition is just something I have no interest in
[00:44.530]At least when I meet my maker, I'll embrace all my mistakes
[00:47.290]As I descend into the bowels of hell with a shit eating grin on my face
[00:51.180]Dark days, it's a never ending cycle of abuse
[00:54.840]Dark days, I have the blues and I can't shake them loose
[00:58.510]Dark days, I have the blues and I can't shake them loose
[01:02.190]Dark days, it's a never ending cycle of abuse
[01:06.670]Was skeptic due to how the media had depicted ya
[01:10.260]Though getting to know you better
[01:11.720]We clicked and so we stuck together
[01:14.060]Turning the corner of the burning cenotaph of those coppers clocked us
[01:17.750]Stopped us and shook us up and down
[01:19.400]With no grounds to and no due process
[01:21.870]They started discussing whether to let us off for doing nothing or
[01:25.310]Maybe pop us for "looking like" we might be hiding something
[01:28.930]The radio buzzed in, "They caught car boot man with the lot"
[01:32.510]Thank f**k, I bought you enough time not to get shot
[01:35.570]Dark days, it's a never ending cycle of abuse
[01:39.150]Dark days, I have the blues and I can't shake them loose

[02:01.290]Dark days, it's a never ending cycle of abuse
[02:34.710]My best ideas are borrowed, but they're never half baked
[02:38.890]They're hard to swallow, hey, I'm an acquired taste
[02:41.720]And if you wanna climb the ladder of success on Judgment Day
[02:45.940]Take my advice and reinvent the reel completely, believe me (Dark days)
[02:52.920]Dark days
