Lyrics:

Waking up, half past five
Blood on pillow and one bruised eye
Drunk too much, you know what I’m like
But you should’ve seen the other guy

This ain’t the right time for you to fall in love with me
Baby I’m just being honest
And I know my lies could not make you believe
We’re running in circles that’s why

In my dark times I’ll be going back to the street
Promising everything I do not mean
In my dark times, baby this is all I could be
Don’t think my mother could love me for me
In my dark times, in my dark times

Light one up, let me bum a smoke
Still calming down, dripping throat
I got another man’s blood on my clothes
But an endless fog’s the life I chose

This ain’t the right time for you to fall in love with me
Baby I’m just being honest
And I know my lies could not make you believe
Running in circles that’s why

In my dark times I’ll be going back to the street
Promising everything I do not mean
In my dark times, baby this is all I could be
Only my mother could love me for me
In my dark times, in my dark times

In my dark times I’ve still got some problems I know
Driving too fast but just moving to slow
And I’ve got something I’ve been trying to let go
Pulling me back every time

In my dark times taking it back to the street
Making those promises that I could not keep
In my dark times, baby this is all I could be
Only my mother could love me for me
In my dark times taking it down to the street
Making those promises that I would not keep
In my dark times this is all I could be
Only my mother could of loved me for me
In my dark times, in my dark times
In my dark times
