Paint it Black

Paint it black to hide the pain within,

paint it black to hide your sins,

doom is coming but paint black your visions

the premonitions,

my heart knows how to love

but paint it black to save me from alienation

my painful annihilation.



There's no one coming in no one going out,

there's no more feeling no more remorse,

Paint it black let there be no light and no doors.


Survive I will, I shall overcome,

in the looming darkness,

I paint my torch black,

I find my way with eyes wide shut,

because in the darkness of the shadows,

black light guides me to myself.


Lost it all in the colors of the world,

loved all but no one ever felt,

in the dark paint of my tears,

love shall survive,

in this black painted godly sky,

I shall fly.


Paint it black to let me be who I am,

paint it black to embrace the death you bestowed me.

- Vineet 'The Bard'
