Black on black will fade away
In shadows I will return one day
To see you to fall asleep inside
Where everyone will lie down to give their heart a rest
I’d like to show the ones I love that I’m ok
And tie my wicked hands up to a tree to be forgotten
Then they will dig me up one day and plant new seeds
That grow much deeper than me, so much stronger than me
And in this world of entertaining
You often fall from grace
Within this life we’re living
We lose a lot of faith
Black on black will fade away
I wish I’d painted you more vividly
To show the colors and streaks contained within you
You were so simple then, more sturdy than the numbers that were given
And in this world of entertaining
The shame you have to face
With the dirt they throw upon you
The madness you embrace
