Blackskin Mile |
Well, I lost my shadow in violent sin |
Never knew the search would be within |
Drew a picture of my only desire |
Take me back to Blackskin Mile |
I thought my karma would be my fate |
Never saw the sun until it was too late |
And oh, drew my loneliness, chasing every last high |
Take me back to Blackskin Mile |
I never met a madman’s soul |
That I didn’t see reflections of that which I own |
But I know there’s something better outside |
So, won’t you take me back to Blackskin Mile |
I walk a valley of a thousand streams |
In retrieval of my self-esteem |
I see a world in you where I may dream high |
Take me back to Blackskin Mile |
I have fallen, but I kept my soul |
Though I felt darkness in the light, I never let go |
That last solitary seconds of my life, won’t you |
Take me back to Blackskin Mile |
And with our resolutions high |
And with our pretty words in lies |
Survival comes with sacrifice |
I run toward the burning to feel alive |
Ooh, found my shadow in a violent sky |
And in my bleeding she’d watch me cry, lawd |
Tears of happiness, my only one desire |
Take me back to Blackskin Mile |
I said, take me Black to Blackskin Mile |
One more time, take me back to Blackskin Mile |
Oh yes, take me Black to Blackskin Mile |
