when it's black/
you don't know
where i've been..
don't get me
caught up in the middle..
(gotta live right)
you don't know
what i've seen..
(i've seen you strung up
like a scarecrow
in the moonlight)
you don't know
what i know ..oh lord
take my name ..
you've got my name
now i'm gone.. please
don't you forget my face
you're all i've got
oh.. i'm gone.
you don't know how far
(we'll drag you white-knuckled by the river on a cold night)
you don't know just how cold we've gotten..
our hands.. they're just icicles & dog bites..
(we'll drive you off while you're sleeping soundly on a black night)
no.. not me
i'm not like them.. i'm not like them
i'm not that gone
don't you see?
they're at my door.
all the clouds
are blacker than our pupils, darling..
they are raining ink down
on hills, trees and houses..
when it's black
they'll show up
when it's all black
they'll show up
once it's black
you'll see
the whites of my eyes
(come get my teeth.)
you don't know where we've been
what we've seen or who we are..
you don't know just what we'll do
we've come for you
we've come for you.
