I caught the darkness,

It was drinking from your cup.

I caught the darkness,

Drinking from your cup.

I said is this contagious?

You said just drink it up.

I got no future,

I know my days are few.

The presence not that pleasant,

Just a lot of things to do.

I thought the past would last me

But the darkness got that too.

I should've seen it coming

It was right behind your eyes.

You were young and it was summer

I just had to take a dive.

Winin' you was easy, but darkness was the price.

I don't smoke no cigarette, I don't drink no alcohol

I ain't had much loving yet

But that's always been your call.

Hey I don't miss it baby

I got no taste for anything at all

I used to love the rainbow

And I used to love the view.

Another early morning, I'd pretend that it was you.

But I caught the darkness baby

And I got it worse than you.

I caught the darkness,

It was drinking from your cup.

I caught the darkness,

Drinking from your cup.

I said is this contagious?

You said just drink it up.
