Black

Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Tongue of ash catches drop
From sharp and bloody steel
We've danced too long to ever stop
It's time for a broken mind to heal
Black stare could shatter stone
Black knife rests - white body prone
Dark angels watch the play below
Black soul wants to die young
Black lips smile when dark tongue
Tastes the wine from your kind
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Crimson tongue catches drop
From nails like razorblades
The dance is done, the game is won
It's time for a broken heart to feel
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Black eyes, black lips, black nails
We are dancing a slow dance
Kiss of ash, my tongue fails
At the sharp blade of romance
Black eyes, black lips, black nails, black eyes
