As the night falls, so do the masks we wear. 🌑 "Dark Times" paints a raw picture of self-conflict and regret. The protagonists are caught in a cycle of destructive behavior, marked by violence, dishonesty and substance abuse. They acknowledge their flaws and warn potential lovers about the dangers of falling for them. Their actions are not driven by malice but by an inability to break free from their dark pasts. Despite promising change, they find themselves reverting back to old habits - a painful yet familiar refuge. The poignant line "only my mother could love me for me" reflects a longing for unconditional acceptance amidst their tumultuous lives. This song is a haunting reminder that everyone battles inner demons; some just have darker times than others.
