KT Tunstall - Dark Side of Me lyrics

Seldom do I tell you
That I need you in the way that I do
Pretended we were opposites
But, it's not the truth of it i denied you
Physical and feminine
These are just the words that we use
They don't mean a thing when I got the blues

I feel the bad blood rising
It's real like I'm somebody else
I ran to California
Felt the water at my feet
But, I still got a dark side of me

Sippy-cup adrenaline
Tryin' to make the skeleton move
I treat myself like firewood
Even though I knew I could
Learn to adore you with me like a shadow
But, I always had to hide it away
But then I let it grow too big for the cage

I feel the bad blood rising
It's real like I'm somebody else
I know I can't afford to let this overtake me
But, I still got a dark side i feel
The bad blood rising it's real
Like I'm somebody else
I always tried to warn
You there are casualties
'Cause, I still got a dark side of me
I still got a dark side of me
