Out of the Black
How did it feel
When it came alive and took you
Out of the black?
It broke your skin and shook through
Every part of me, every part of you.
Chorus:
You made a fool out of me
And took the skin off my back running
So don't breathe when I talk
Cause you haven't been spoken to
I got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it,
But a sliver for a heart beating blood from an empty pocket.
I never wondered why
And you didn't care when
You closed every day
I washed away your sin
And I promised you
Like you promised me
That those vows we made
We fucked them up for free
Chorus: (x2)
You made a fool out of me
And took the skin off my back running
So don't breathe when I talk
Cause you haven't been spoken to
I got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it,
But a sliver for a heart beating blood from an empty pocket.
And it's hard, this world
Never lets you go
Deals your cards right here.
