PAINT IT BLACK

(álbum: DANSE MACABRE - 2023)

I see a red door
I say paint it black
No color in my life
So just turn it black

I see the girls walking by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I'm gonna turn my head
'Til the darkness goes

I see this line of cars
And they're all painted black
Dead flowers and my love
Both never to come back

You people turn your heads
Quick now, look away
Like a newborn baby
Is that just happens everyday

I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black

Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black

No more will my deep sea shades
A deeper blue
Maybe now this dark thing
Will start happening to you

If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love be laughing at me
Before the morning comes

I wanna see it painted
Painted black
Black as night
Black as coal
I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted
Painted, painted black, yeah
