Black Would Be White

My tears don’t let my flowers fade My song fell silent in the shade I’m numbed I’m standing still in fear All that I lived for disappears The air I breathe is getting close I’m choking, feeling so exposed I’ve come to kneel here in the dirt To everyone I’ve ever hurt Black would be white If you would only hold my hand Black would be white I’d be yours Wrong would be right If you would only touch my hand Night would be light I’d be yours I tried so hard to keep the flame From being put out by the rain That was my poor and last attempt The darkest dream I ever dreamt My sun is black, my rain is blood Mixed in the mourning-colored flood It’s true you won’t know heaven well If you have never been in hell Black would be white If you would only hold my hand Black would be white I’d be yours Wrong would be right If you would only touch my hand Night would be light I’d be yours If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand If you would only hold my hand I’ve been in hell… Black would be white If you would only hold my hand Black would be white I’d be yours Wrong would be right If you would only touch my hand Night would be light I’d be yours
