"I wish I never woke up this morning...life was easy, when it was boring..."Off their 1981 record "Ghost in the Machine", this is "Darkness". Written by Steward Copeland, this is my favourite POLICE - song. Fairly unconventional when you think of what generally comes to mind when you think of POLICE. But I love it. This is one of the very few tracks I could listen to from morning to evening and to morning - which in fact I even did - without getting bored. ENJOY!
P.S. Here are the lyrics:
I can dream up schemes when I'm sitting in my seat
I don't see any flaws till I get to my feet
I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring
I could make a mark, it weren't so dark
I could be replaced by any bright spark
But darkness makes me fumble
For a key to a door that's wide open
Instead of worrying about my clothes
I could be someone that nobody knows
I wish I never woke up this morning
Life was easy when it was boring
I can dream up schemes…
