Black Songtext
von Ours

So many lies I′ve confessed
So many lies made a mess
I pushed it all into something
Pushed it all

You turned and everything went black
You turned and everything went black

Wouldn't have tried to compete
Wouldn′t have lied, but to keep
Something told me it hurt me
Something tore back

You turned and everything went black
Turned and everything went black

You pushed it all so you'd never see it
You pushed it all
You're fiending
You′re pulling strings
Dancing, you′re the snake


You're so pretty
You are
You′re so pretty

You turned and everything went black
Turned and everything went black
(Everything went black)
You turned and everything went black
(Everything went black)
You turned and everything went black


I never sought power for power's sake
Because power in the hands of a dangerous man
Is power in the hands of an enemy
An enemy of yours and an enemy of mine
That manipulates kindness for his own personal highs
As he′s counting lines, counting numbers
Counting lines, counting lines, counting numbers
So don't look at me and sneer
Because I am nothing like you, the difference is clear
I′m your nigga you built with fear
I hope I live to see the day when your ideals go crashing away
To show you that your reflection is as cold and as black
As the organs that pump blood to your veins
Because you see, I never wanted to own you
Or them, or really anything, just me

But you pushed, pushed and pushed me
You pushed, pushed and pushed me
Pushed it all into something black
