Paint It Black

I see a red door and I want it painted black

No colors anymore I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes

I have to turn my head until my darkness grows

I see a line of cars and they’re all painted black

With flowers and my love both never to come back

I see people turn their heads and quickly look away

Like a newborn baby it just happens everyday

I look inside myself and see my heart is black

I see my red door I must have it painted black

Maybe then I’ll fade away and not have to face the fact

It’s not easy facing up when your whole world is black

I wanna see it painted

Painted black

Black as night

Black as coal

I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky, yeah

I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
