Black

Lyrics

[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?
