Black (single)

VERSE 1 Nothing but black light penetrates through cracks in the edges of you Reaching out to find a space Emptiness now fills that place PRE-CHORUS Scratch the surface Scrape the bone Crack through the cartilage Only to find, inky-dark marrow Drain the wound that doesn't stop seeping Til it pours down your throat, plugs up the ears, fills up the lungs Black inside black over black Black inside black over black CHORUS Space (space) You dropped away (you dropped away) Cavity Vacant Are you obscured? (are you obscured?) Or is there nothing there? Time (time) Time drifts ahead (time drifts ahead) Moments freeze. Static. Kept facing forward. Didn't hold on. When I turned back, you were gone. VERSE 2 Seeking out the find a key. Searching for a door ahead of me. There's no light from behind, I'd been walking blind. Groping for any support I could find. Flickers of light would awaken. So many gone, I'd forsaken. Vacancy Slowly filled by viscous blight. PRE-CHORUS Scratch the surface Scrape the bone Crack through the cartilage Only to find, inky-dark marrow Drain the wound that doesn't stop seeping Til it pours down your throat, plugs up the ears, fills up the lungs Black inside black over black Black inside black over black CHORUS Space (space) You dropped away (you dropped away) Cavity Vacant Are you obscured? (are you obscured?) Or is there nothing there? Time (time) Time drifts ahead (time drifts ahead) Moments freeze. Static. Kept facing forward. Didn't hold on. When I turned back, you were gone. OUTRO Small and alone Fear pervades, so shut down Bury deep, hide it all Til it can not be found. Search to heal, but it's lost. Remedied, at a cost. That neglect, breeds the dark. Black inside black over black.
