(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)
I'm on my way back home from long forgotten places
I'm gonna give it one more try to fill in all the spaces
There's such a gap between us in time and in sorrow
I'll talk to you today, you won't hear me 'til tomorrow
You've been sharing the drink
With those who hide the missing link
We've gotta get in sync
'Cause it's darker than you think
Darker than you think
It's darker than you think
No one sees it when they wink
It's darker, so much darker
Than you think
I'm not crying wolf when I say Chicken Little's right
The sky is falling down we're on the edge of night
Just 'cause daddy's driving doesn't mean that you won't crash
I'll be too late when you are headed straight into the dash
You've been sharing the drink
With those who hide the missing link
We've gotta get in sync
'Cause it's darker than you think
Darker than you think
Darker than you think
No one sees it when they wink
It's darker, so much darker
Than you think
Authorities and experts will pick you from the dust
They'll hug you while they piss on you to wash off the mistrust
Truth in advertising is as real as unicorns
But you'll buy half a dozen even if they have two horns
You've been sharing the drink
With those who hide the missing link
We've gotta get in sync
'Cause it's darker than you think
Darker than you think
Darker than you think
No one sees it when they wink
It's darker, so much darker
Than you think
