Darker shade, darker breed
Darker thought, darker need
Pure in heart, clean in soul
Dead in life, empty hole
Black is the veil that hides our tears
Black is our life through all its years
Black is our soul as it leaves the earth
Black is the child that awaits its birth
Angel world, dying sky
Beautiful one in dirt to die
Scarecrow child alone to sing
That are and be , the hangman's swing
Black is the veil that hides our tears
Black is our life through all its years
Black is our soul as it leaves the earth
Black is the child that awaits its birth
Darker shade, darker breed
Darker thought, darker need
Scarecrow child alone to sing
That are and be , the hangman's swing
Black is the veil that hides our tears
Black is our life through all its years
Black is our soul as it leaves the earth
Black is the child that awaits its birth
