Lyrics
Black Heart
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.
Black heart's comin', he's a cold machine
Cuts like a knife, gentle and clean
Face like an angel, mind of a killer
Nobody else gonna love her better
Lay down now, stay down
Took her life with a quick pull trigger
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don't mind, I don't mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don't mind if you don't mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Black heart's kickin' like a beating drum
Shooting her down, the sound of his gun
No compassion, hard as an assassin
Falling deeper still in that reckless fashion
Lay down now, stay down
Deeper and deeper
With a blind man's passion
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don't mind, I don't mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don't mind if you don't mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead mans eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Rescue me
(If you don't mind)
Rescue me
(If you don't mind)
Rescue me
(If you don't mind)
If you don't mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
