"Black Skies"

Now you don't know just how I feel
Nothing I hear makes it seem real
I'd be amazed if we survive
We don't relate, being alive

Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know

Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There's no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake

The problem I have, don't know who I am
I might be the ghost of every man
It's hard to fit in this world today
Some of us blessed and carried away

Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know

Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?

Gone as the sunlight fills my eyes with a sorrow
And without warning kills the flame of tomorrow

Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There's no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake

Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?
