History In Black
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.
I can't stop, it's too late
It pulls out, it's my fate
My legacy in black
Looking in to my eyes
See the things I despise
My soul is tainted black
I traveled with the enemy
I thought it was my destiny
I'm free of all the lunacy
I never want it back, my history in black
Silent screams longing voice
Out of dreams, ringing noise
My memory is black
It's not a mask, it's my skin
Please don't ask where I've been
My heart is painted black
I traveled with the enemy
I thought it was my destiny
I'm free of all the lunacy
I never want it back, my history in black
I escaped from the cage
Inside
I traveled with the enemy
I thought it was my destiny
I'm free of all the lunacy
I never want it back, my history in black
My history in black
