Cover art for Dark Side lyrics by Kelly Clarkson

Nobody has anything to say bout this song? I like the way she sings it-she's not wailing or belting. I love the message. "Warts in all" terminolgy. ;)

To me the song is about someone sufferring with a personality disorder. They show the person they love a mask, believing that is what you want to love.

Instead borderlines have such insecurities, they feel they aren't worthy of love, so 'they try to push you out' to see if you love them.

They feel if they drop their mask, you won't like what you see.

The stupidity of the situation is that if they didn't act in the way they did, you'd stay with them forever.

It is so hard for them to face their problems, probably 20 times...

Wow! I don't know whether to be flattered that you would take the time and give such a well spoken and thought out reply to me,or ready to tell you to fuck off as it has nothing to do with me and replied to me.
