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 present’s 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 have seen it coming It was right behind your eyes You were young and it was summer I just had to take a dive Winning you was easy But darkness was the prize
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 I used to love the view I loved the early morning I’d pretend that it was new 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"

"Darkness" is the first official radio single from Old Ideas, released digitally to radio stations on January 11, 2012, as well for free online listening at Leonard Cohen's SoundCloud pages. This song was first premiered on the public sound check at Piazza San Marco in Venice on August 3, 2009, and officially in the set list of the Nashville concert, November 5, 2009. Later it was included in many 2010 concerts, as the work in progress, and entitled "The Darkness". The album version has slightly faster tempo so it is about 1 minute shorter. The song lyrics were printed in Leonard Cohen's 2011 book Poems and Songs (Everyman's Library).
