Dark Days is a bit of a misnomer.
“It’s a nostalgic song about high school first loves and all the intensity and tension surrounding them, mixed with a little dose of religious guilt.
Growing up in Southern California, we didn’t have many days without sun. “Dark Days” brought to mind good memories...
[Verse 1]
Finally what you came for
Finally what you hoped to find
Racing home from her house
Looking out for black and white
Dark days in the summer
A million ways to toe the line
Can't wait, holy other
Might as well be the seventh sign
[Chorus]
Ooh, it goes hand in hand with fear for the afterlife
Ooh, how can we fight it, fight it if we don't even know why?
[Verse 2: Nina Persson]
While the dollar is strong
While nobody else relies
When they turn the corner
When you know we're out of sight
Dark days in the summer
In the rain the water's fine
It was wild combination
Either that or right down the line
[Chorus]
Ooh, it goes hand in hand with fear for the afterlife
Ooh, how can we fight it, fight it if we don't even know why?
[Outro]
I've been on the way
I've been on the way
I've been on my way for so long
I've been on the way
I've been on the way
I've been on my way for so long
