Lyrics
Better In Blak
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.
Do you know what it feels like
To get calls in the middle of the night
Saying, "You are not worth it
You deserve it
Go on, have another drink"?
Do you know what it feels like
To get stuck in the middle of a fight
Screaming, "You are not worth it
You deserve it
Go on, have another drink"?
But if I just keep quiet
I'll be the one who's lying too
Why should I keep hiding
Always crying
Tell me, what did I do?
You took the color from me
Darling, I'll get it back
You took the color from me
But I look better in black
If I knew what I know now
Maybe I would take it back
But fuck that
I look better in black
Do you know what it feels like
To be told that you are never right?
If I had lighter skin, maybe I would win
Does it make you wanna think?
Do you know what it feels like
'Cause I know what it feels like
If I had lighter skin, maybe I would win
Does it make you wanna think?
But if I just keep quiet
I'll be the one who's lying too
Why should I keep hiding
Always crying
Tell me, what did I do?
You took the color from me
Darling, I'll get it back
You took the color from me
But I look better in black
If I knew what I know now
Maybe I would take it back
But fuck that
I look better in black
Hey
I look better in black
Hey
I look better in black
If I knew what I know now
Maybe I would take it back
But fuck that (Fuck that!)
I look better in black
