Best Of Darkness And Light

Verse1
Darkness
it brings out part of my world
it brings out part of the man I am
a place where you have nothing to hide
a place where all the pain goes away
where it rains
it never storms
it's just part of me

Verse2
Light
it brings out another part of my world
it brings out another part of the man I am
a place where have no reason to hide
a place where it never rains
it's paradise

Bridge
A place inside of me
that's not dazed and confused
a place where I can be me
and get away

Chorus
I've got the
Best Of Darkness And Light
a place where I can run away
into the night
I've got the
Best Of Darkness And Light
where I feel safe
when I close my eyes
I've got the
Best Of Darkness And Light
take me away
into the light

Verse3
It's just a part of me
can't understand
why you don't see
it's a place
where I can be free
where I can be free

(solo)

Repeat Bridge

Verse4
Let me
take you away
so you can see
there's nothin' to fear
it's just you and me
I wouldn't hurt you
can't you see
it's you and me

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This one is about where I was in my life at the time. I was working at Delta Faucet at the time. I used to write a lot when I had nothing else to do at work. It was before I began going to the strip club and I really had no outlet other than writing song lyrics, playing guitar, and going out with my firends and drinking a lot. Ironically I began to drink even more when I was going to the strip club. But I thought "Best Of Darkness And Light" was a title that ran through my mind and really made me think of how that would be. To be the best of both worlds and how that could possibly work. Everyone has a dark side. Everyone has a light said. I guess we're all the best of both.
