Black Skies
Now you don’t know
Just how I feel
Nothing I hear
Makes it seem real
I’d be amazed
If we survive
We don’t relate
Being alive
Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know
Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There’s no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake
The problem I have
Don’t know who I am
I might be the ghost
Of every man
It’s hard to fit in
This world today
Some of us blessed
And carried away
Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know
Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colors pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?
Gone as the sunlight
Fills my eyes
With a sorrow
And without warning
kills the flame of tomorrow
Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There’s no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake
Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colors pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?
