I'm sorry for leaving, and making you believe in, a man that I'll never be

Heading down the road now, clean my heart and soul out, just like a refinery

If I could stay for the night, I'll feel alright, by the morning come

You'll be crying in your bed, and dying in your head with the morning sun.

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back

Because the good heart in me knows I need you back

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back

Because the good heart in me knows I need you back.

And I know I'm not a good man but you gotta understand what I've been through

I spend my dark days in hell and if you couldn't tell, I found a light in you

And I'll never be the same and it's all you to blame, who gave that right to you?

But if push comes to shove, I'm in desperate need of love, I'll fuckin fight for you.

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back

Because the good heart in me knows I need you back

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back

Because the good heart in me knows I need you back.

I'm sorry for leaving, and making you believe in, a man that I'll never be

Heading down the road now, clean my heart and soul out, just like a refinery

I gotta get the dark out of me before I head on back...
