Black by Sarah Mclachlan

As the walls are closing in
And the colours fade to black
And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what's right
And they wonder sometimes when they see
All the sadness and pain
The truth brings to light
But I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
And I want what is pleasing
All I take should be free
What I'd rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret?
As the walls are closing in
And the colours fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
And in darkness all that I can see
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know nothing of
At mercy are the meek
But I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
And I want what is pleasing
All I take should be free
What I'd rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret?
