Blue On Black Lyrics

Shadows of ourselves

Dying in the night

Drowned in every thought

Stranded out of sight

Spectres of our trenchant views

Echoes in an amber mine

Dissolving spines, blinding eyes

In a deaf abyss, outshined

Scenes of immortality

Crowding for the screen

Burning flesh, a faint caress

All reside in me

Little more hidden

Little less seen

Different from whom

We've always been

Tired of drudging on

I've varnished my arms black

Pressed your fingers on my face

And carried you on my back

Little more hidden

Little less seen

In another place now

We all have to bleed

Sick of moving on

I've bended my mind back

Scattered your ashes on my face

And held you in the black

Little more of you

Little less of me

Crimson dyed locks

Bind me in a dream

I'm tired of turning back

Little more of you

Little more of me

Blood painted rocks

Drown me in the stream

I'm tired of turning back

The kind of blue I seek

Was always in your black
