Black

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 they wonder sometimes
when the see all the
sadness and pain
that truth brings to light

Chorus:
Cause I cant see no reason
What is blind cannot see
Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb

If I cried me a river
of all me confessions
Would I drown
in my shallow regret

As the walls are closing in
and the colors fad to black
and the eyes are falling
fast and deep into the sea

and the darkness
all that I can see
the frightened and the weak
are forced to cling to the mistakes
they know nothing of
at mercy are the meek

Chorus:
