Black

[Verse 1]

As the walls are closing in

And the colors fade to black

And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me

And I follow the tracks that lead me down

And I never follow what's right

And I wonder sometimes when they see

All the sadness and pain that truth brings to light

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't see no reason

What is blind cannot see

'Cause I want what is pleasing

All I take should be free

What I rob from the innocent ones

What I'd steal from the womb

[Post-Chorus]

If I cried me a river of all my confessions

Would I drown in my shallow regret?

[Verse 2]

As the walls are closing in

And the colors fade to black

As my eyes are falling fast and deep into the sea

And in darkness all that I can see

The frightened and the weak

Are forced to cling to mistakes they know nothing of

At mercy are the meek

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't see no reason

What is blind cannot see

'Cause I want what is pleasing

All I take should be free

What I rob from the innocent ones

What I'd steal from the womb

[Post-Chorus]

If I cried me a river of all my confessions

Would I drown in my shallow regret?

If I cried me a river of all my confessions

Would I drown in my shallow regret?

If I cried me a river of all my confessions

Would I drown in my shallow regret?

If I cried me a river of all my confessions

Would I drown in my shallow regret?
