Lyrics
Black Sheep
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You've fallen captive to what you thought would save you,
what you thought would clean your slate.
You're in the thick of it now and you have swallowed the hook.
What's done is done.
We'll continue on with or without you.
Pain must exist in order for healing to survive.
Neither one will ever serve their purpose alone.
You've fallen in love with a dream you've never had.
You've fallen in love with a surreal way of living.
To late to wake, farewell and good luck to you.
See you at the end.
Too late to wake, to lay too waste.
I'm throwing in the towel.
This is my goodbye.
Don't worry.
We saw through your trickery, and were coming out alive.
See you at the end.
What was once your life is now lifeless.
What was once your life is now your jail cell
