5. Black Tears (3:15)
When I'm in this state of mind
I'm wishing I was blind. Sometimes life is
more than pain, to me
I feel the power of my grief. Death would be
such a relief. All the secrets that I hide
would die, with me.
Depression is my only friend. Will this
torture never end? Let me carry on to
the dreamers sky.
I keep crying in my dreams.
Can you hear my endless screams?
When I fade away I fade alone.
[Chorus:]
THIS FLUID ON MY CHEEK, IT DRAINS ME
I GET WEAK. MY HEART IS COLD & BLEAK
BLACK BLOOD. BLACK TEARS.
Life is just a masquerade. In dept to myself,
but I can't pay. Soon I'll call it all a day, away.
I've never felt what you call guilt.
I still believe "Do what thou wilt"
My sorrow will destroy the world I've built.
[Chorus]
