Monochrome Kiss (Black Butler)

(album: Nostalgia IV - 2018)

In black and white, no whisper of colour
In monochrome, we met each other
I'll put my faith in my pain
In you to keep safe

The Autumn wind is so unforgiving
Much like the scars that trace my body
Your icy touch I trust
I feel it beckoning me

I was melting away and breaking
But then you tenderly saved me from myself
Fate is the game we're playing
And it starts with a monochrome kiss

Nevertheless, I'm searching on
Looking for a single drop of love
I look into your eyes; eyes that have never once cried
They tell a tale beyond time

And if I can, I'll seek the end
Shrouded in my pain just as I am
Hiding within the night, together we'll find it
Under the light of the moon

How many nights have I loved in your wake?
I've come to know, to see your heartache
I need you here with me
Without you, I forget to breathe

With your gaze I am captivated
But I am finding it holds no warmth at all
Now all the rules are changing
But I despise how you lie with a kiss

I'm begging please, don't leave me alone
Colour in my heart, right to my soul
Lulling me to sleep, lies I have always believed
So tell a tale in my dreams

I'm so confused, I've lost my mind
Whisper soft as I'm closing my eyes
Finding all that was lost, your smile the cost was
Under the light of the moon

I was melting away and breaking
But then you tenderly saved me from myself
Fate is the game we're playing
And it all starts with a monochrome kiss

Nevertheless, I'm searching on
Looking for a single drop of love
I look into your eyes; eyes that have never once cried
They tell a tale beyond time

And if I can, I'll seek the end
Shrouding in my pain just as I am
Your wish in the dark, shining in bay like the dawn
A barely new tomorrow

So pay it again
So passionate; A braveless kiss on my lips
Hiding within the night together we'll find it
My final night under the moon
