Out Of The Black

(album: Writing Of Blues And Yellows - 2016)

[Verse 1]
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've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Pulled a trigger for a heart beating blood from an empty pocket

[Verse 2]
And I never knew why and you didn't care when
You closed every door and washed away no sin
And I promised you like you promised me
That those vows we made, we messed them up for free

[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've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Pulled a trigger for a heart beating blood from an empty pocket
An empty pocket

[Bridge]
And it touches slow
Never let's you go
Deals a crooked hand
And it touches slow
Never let's you go
Deals a crooked hand

[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've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Pulled a trigger for a heart beating blood from an empty pocket
An empty pocket
