Aesthetic Perfection - The Dark Half

Текст песни

Each one of us is two separate beings
There’s the outer being, the one that we show to the world at large
And then there’s the inner truth of?
Follow me to the dark,
Into the dead of night,
It’s time to see the truth,
To meet the other side
I’ll give what you crave
I’ll leave you wanting more
He’s gotta get, oh, you gotta get it
Cause everything you need
Is lurking in the core
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
Gotta cut that hole inside of me
You gotta cut deep down below
To where the beauty digs its hole
You never love and it shows
For who I truly am
Why must I be a fraud?
Why must I be a show?
Why can’t I be content?
To reap the seeds I’ve sew-oh-oh-oh-own?
For all your flattery
For all your words of praise
He’s gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You are only nurturing
The side of me I hate
He’s gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
Gotta cut that hole inside of me
You gotta cut deep down below
To where the beauty digs its hole
You never love and it shows
For who I truly am
Hey, hey, hey (x4)
Run from the one, in the dark
He’ll never let you go
Run from the one, in the dark
He’ll never let you go
Run from the one, in the dark
He’ll never let you go
Run from the one, in the dark
He’ll never let you go
You gotta cut deep down below
To where the beauty digs its hole
You never love and it shows
For who I truly am
Hey, hey, hey (x4)
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
You gotta get it, ooh, you gotta get it
(spoken clip)
Most of us keep that inner being hidden away, locked up. He doesn’t have to
hide it, he doesn’t have to keep it from anything, he can let it out,
bring it out in the open and let it live.
