A currency of heartache and sorrow The air we breathe is stale with mold To shadows we are slaves digging deeper every day But emptiness is growing so old
Headlamps light the tunnels we wander They shimmer and they dance on the walls We're lost inside these caves as the chances of escape Grow slimmer 'til there's no chance at all
This ink, it travels from the page Up my hand and to my veins Choking on those stories I've told If there are words here left to say I just want to let you know
I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colors used to wash right out But now they are a part of me And I've been searching for a remedy When all along it's been in front of me I need you here, I need you now Right now
We traffic in the blackest of markets Trade misery like diamonds and gold The angst that we exchange for applause or petty praise Is finally now taking its toll
But there's a world above the ground A life that we can lead We're washing off the dirt from our clothes I don't want to live without I just wanna let you know
I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colors used to wash right out But now they are a part of me And I've been searching for a remedy When all along it's been in front of me I need you here, I need you now Right now Right now
(Black stains) they mark me like a letter (Won't fade) cracking under the pressure (Black stains) nothing stays gold
There's a world above the ground A life that we can lead But we're lost deep down in these holes And I've seen the way out Now I just want to let you know
I'm falling on my knees right now (black stains) I'm covered in the mess I made (won’t fade) These colors used to wash right out (black stains) But now they are a part of me And I've been searching for a remedy When all along it's been in front of me Your voice it washes the stains away (Wash the stains away) Woo oh oh oh (Wash the stains away)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
