Black

black is the entrance
the essence to which i confide
my mystery
into the escape within
evil is the villain
with a gun that kills just for fun

i feel it all come down in pieces
hold me tight its cold outside
i feel it all come down in pieces
hold me tight its cold outside

black is the beauty
so sleek the mystery
the rain that falls upon me

deep is the color of your skin
black is the void i fall in
into the velvet sea

black is an empty space
the place in which i desire
to hide within

dark is a thing to fear
where nothings revealed
the depth below i'm falling

i feel it all come down in pieces
hold me tight its cold outside
i feel it all come down in pieces
hold me tight its cold outside
