Black Heart

I remember way back in school just hanging

around thinking who the hell decided

that this was a good idea

Flash forward to a million years later

and I’m still here waiting but

I don’t seem to be getting answers anytime soon

I was drifting I didn’t have a clue

And everything just seemed so pointless

And then I turned, and she was right

there by my side saying everything’s gonna be okay

You know I’ll love her until that final day

when they scatter black roses on my grave

I had a black heart straight from the start

I never really knew what it was all about until I met you

This all just seemed like something I had to do

Sure I was passing time in all the best places

I was getting wrecked and hardly ever even paying

It’s amazing what you can get away with

when you don’t give a damn

Paranoia started screwing with my head

And the walls were closing in

And then I turned and she was right there

by my side smiling at me like I was insane

I’ll be with her until that final day

when they scatter black roses on my grave

But until that day comes don’t bother getting up girl

I’ll pour the chardonnay and turn the music up

I was crazy and I guess that I still am

But with you I think I’ll make it
