Darkness, The - Conquerors Lyrics






I don't even want to know your name
after what happened last night
No, I don't wanna know your name

I don't wanna know the name of this game
Don't wanna play this game
After what happened last night

A diamond is only
Some coal that's stuck to it's job
And it's getting so lonely

We were always gonna be the conquerors
We were never gonna sail back home again
The tide is so strong
So keep holding on

Sympathy is dangerous
In the wrong hands
In the wrong light
On a warm summer night

Sympathy is dangerous
In the wrong heart
In the wrong place
At the wrong time

A jewel is only
Some coal that's stuck to it's job
And it's getting so lonely

We were always gonna be the conquerors
We were never gonna sail back home again
The tide is so strong
So keep holding on

I diamond is only
Some coal that's stuck to it's job
And it's getting so lonely

We were always gonna be the conquerors
We were never gonna sail back home again
The tide is so strong
So keep holding on

We were always gonna be the conquerors
We were always gonna conquer
We were always gonna be the conquerors
We were always gonna be the conquerors
The tide is so strong
So keep holding on

Darkness, The Conquerors Comments
  1. R.... K....

    Good song but the chorus is a little "Radio gaga"

  2. 1.... ....

    On the next album I’d like to hear Dan and Frankie sing one each. That would be awesome lads!

  3. S.... P....

    Frankie is a legend. So pleased to hear a different vocalist. Justin is an exceptional talent but it nice to hear different voices in lead. So pleased they did this.

  4. J.... O....

    their greatest album, full stop.... The masters of hard rock are back!

  5. C.... L....

    Nope. Hand the mic back.

  6. L.... X....

    Okay this reminds me so bad of something but I have no idea what? Especially the 'a diamond is only....getting so lonely' but I can't place it. Maybe it's just Frankie's voice idk

  7. L.... X....

    Is it Emily playing the drums for this one? Dosent sound particularly Rufus or Ed

    L.... X....

    Emily recorded the drums on every track on this album with the exception of I Am Santa (Rufus recorded the drum parts for that song). Ed was not involved in this album at all (he left in 2014).

  8. G.... M....

    The Darkness meets Def Leppard circa 1988. BLOODY AWESOME!

  9. T.... ....

    Go on Frankie !

  10. s.... s....

    I know what happened last night....but frankie said he'd kill me if I told anyone :(

  11. H.... ....

    I've never been that much of a fan of your newer stuff but I've found after a few listens it's growing on me.
    I will never be able to think of this song without thinking of a friend that was sadly lost a few months back. Aimee asked for an extract of the chorus to be read at her funeral, it was very emotional. Since then I've really grown to love this song. I know you're unlikely to read this but if you happen to be playing this song during your set list in Glasgow later this month, could you please, please dedicate it to Aimee.
    Thank you.

  12. M.... S....

    Oh wow! The Darkness can do a ballad after all. And one with a great (though too brief) guitar solo.

  13. E.... ....

    I really love this song. Thanx for the music, The Darkness :)

  14. A.... ....

    That's it DE JAH VEW Commodore Ballroom. Fuck that was BLAST M. F. s

  15. G.... ....

    I'm glad the group let Frankie show off his vocal ability. Pretty damn good.

  16. s.... s....

    brilliant song, loved it when they played this at rock city

  17. _.... ....

    One of my favorite songs from the album!

  18. R.... W....

    The first time I heard this, I wasn't so sure about it. It took me aback in that Justin doesn't sing it (other than some backup vocals). The second time, it clicked and made me wonder if it's not the best song on the album....and that's saying something, considering that this is such a tremendous record. Frankie's vocals are great, and they suit the 80's power ballad thing goin' on here. The chorus is massive.

  19. E.... A....

    It's always so fuckin' Raw

  20. k.... ....

    Chorus should last longer, it's fucking anthemic and awesome.

  21. M.... ....

    Dear TheDarkness, I want to give yall a big hug. Can this be arranged? That's what this song does to me :'-)

  22. F.... ....

    recently, you are one of my favorite bands

  23. J.... T....

    the big question is......what the fuck happened last night??

    J.... T....

    ahahahah I'm asking the same question...I think that maybe it's about some girl..ahahahahah

  24. T.... ....

    I have no idea what this song is supposed to be about

    T.... ....

    +TheHawkdaddy and yet still good as hell>>> what an amazing band!

  25. O.... G....

    Love it!

  26. R.... G....

    Killer Anthem

  27. R.... F....

    Please check out my original music at my channel.

  28. D.... R....

    Frankie Poullain actually has a damn decent voice in his own right, I hope that The Darkness allow him to sing more songs on a future album, because this is actually one of my favorite songs off of The Last of Our Kind. That's saying something because I love every song on this album, and that's saying doubly something else because I used to hate The Darkness for the longest time. Such an incredible album from start to finish and this track is the cherry on top of the delicious sundae.

  29. n.... ....

    The best song on the album in my opinion

    n.... ....

    @newportmeister definitely one of them for sure, a surprise gem if I say so myself. Frankie Poullain actually has a solid singing voice in his own right, and the chorus? Uplifting! Love this song!

  30. N.... K....

    sounds like something roger taylor would sing whilst still playing drums for example, "im in love with my car"  great track!....

    N.... K....

    Yes, his voice is very like Roger's, in other words great!

    N.... K....

    +powerslave asassin Great call ! You're right, this seems like something that Roger Taylor would sing....kind of raspier.

  31. s.... ....

    I was wondering if it was Frankie singing. Not a bad voice at all!

    s.... ....

    just watched an interview with Justin and it is Frankie singing!

  32. L.... M....

    It remembers me a Beatles song, "She Said"... I mean the guitar riff at the beginning

  33. K.... S....

    A thumbs down? Seriously? This song is fantastic and Frankie sings it brilliantly.

    K.... S....

    @Kimberly Snyder That was Frankie. Sorry. (xxx Dan)

    K.... S....

    @The Darkness Oooh, that Frankie! Take it back. :) xxx

    K.... S....

    @The Darkness hey Justin where's Ed? i love you guys!!!!

    K.... S....

    I think they were so amazed about the song that they selected the wrong button haha just a confusion XD

    K.... S....

    haters don't need a reason. hate is in their hearts already

  34. c.... ....

    Vocals by bassist Frankie Poullain!  Great song :D

    c.... ....

    @chrisjamesr77 It's Frankie? Cool. I honestly thought it was Brian May.

    c.... ....

    @TomMSTie1138 yup, it's Frankie, and he has a solid singing voice in his own right. Such a great song off an incredible album.

    c.... ....

    @IcedEarthaholic
    Totally.
