A Heart as Black as Coal

There's something in those eyes

A thing you can't define

Two burnt-out blackened holes

All full of dying

A twisted little mind

Scheme and telling lies

Showing you the trails

You never thought you'd find

If you wake when you are sleeping

Pray the Lord your soul to keep

Through the gateways of the unknown

The black holes of the mind

Dark places, strange faces

When you cross the line

Lost your way

Lost yourself

And dream became what's real

A broken soul

A heart as black as coal

Afraid of what you'd find

If you talked to Mr. Hyde

Looked into your eyes

And saw a liar

In the mirror glass

A dead hand of the past

The double-face of you

That never dropped the mask

Come alive when you are dreaming

Pray the Lord your soul to keep

Through the gateways of the unknown

The black holes of the mind

Dark places, strange faces

When you cross the line

Lost your way

Lost yourself

And dream became what's real

A broken soul

A heart as black as coal

Through the gateways of the unknown

The black holes of the mind

Dark places, strange faces

When you cross the line

Lost your way

Lost yourself

And dream became what's real

A broken soul

A heart as black as coal
