The Other - On My Skin

Oh I wear my heart
On my sleeve, I speak the truth
Is it black and cold
Is it just like I want you
It means hell to me, hell is where I want to be
Turn my insides out
I wear the black, for you and me…to be

I’m wearing death on my skin
All black from outside to in
I’m wearing death on my skin
In misery
No company

The black is what I am
The black is most that I still feel
Nothing else suits me
The dark makes my emotions heal
Shades of grey on better days
Drops of red like splattered blood
A deathly white when I feel bright
But the black it fills me up…my heart

If I ever lie, I only ever lie
Not to make you cry, not to make you cry
Every word i say, it comes from the heart
The truth is black, it’s a dying art

I said no
I said no
