blacker days can misbehave
read my thoughts
rip off a page
count me out
count me in

blacker days can misbehave
heading for an early grave
that's the place
that's the face

I recall
I close the case

now I can breathe the air
release the weight
but I can't escape
from myself

race the race
face to face
touch and embrace

it's down this ugly town
downtown
I feel slowed down

were my eyes open wide
when you turned into a part of me?
guess we both took it well
can I keep it all inside?

slowed down
gone wide
