Something Black Lyrics by Francis Lung

Vol II (Mother’s Son)

2016

Im not afraid to live
Im not afraid to live a lie
Cos i'll get by
Its better than some truth you dont decide
Youre still running with your old friends
Catching all the sunsets
Believing in all that now
You can run with all your old friends
Bet on all the safe bets
They'll never pay out
Would it really be so bad?
When its over we'd be glad
What a great lie we all had, we all had
A black rose in spring
I saw a black rose in spring
Growing alone
It made me think
“maybe i could too.”
Youre still running with your old friends
Catching all the sunsets
Who could leave all that now?
You can run with all your old friends
Bet on all the safe bets
They'll never pay out
Would it really be so bad?
When its over we'd be glad
What a great lie we all had, we all had
Put it all away now
Put the past away for now
Something black would look so good
In place of blue
Ill miss you, and i do
I was the room, you were the view
Something black would look so good
In place of you
What i thought, thought was deep, it was not even shallow
What i thought, thought was black, it was not even shadow
What i thought, thought was you, well it was not even half
What i thought, thought was me, well now it makes me
Now it makes me laugh
