Blackskin Mile

Hmm well I lost my shadow in violent sin Never knew the search would be within Drew a picture of my only desire Take me back to Blackskin Mile I thought my karma would be my fate Never saw the sun until it was too late And oh drew my loneliness chasing every last high Take me back to Blackskin Mile I’ve never met a madman’s soul that I Didn’t see reflections of that which I own But I know there’s something better outside So won’t you take me back to Blackskin Mile? I walk a valley of a thousand streams In retrieval of my self-esteem I see a world in you where I may dream high Take me back to Blackskin Mile I have fallen but I kept my soul Though I felt darkness in the light I never let go That last solitary seconds of my life won’t you Take me back to Blackskin Mile? And with our resolutions high And with our pretty words in lies Survival comes with sacrifice I run toward the burning To feel alive ooh Found my shadow in a violent sky And in my bleeding she’d watch me cry Lord Tears of happiness My only one desire Take me back to Blackskin Mile I said Take me back to Blackskin Mile One more time Take me back to Blackskin Mile Oh yes Take me back to Blackskin Mile Hmm-mm Hmm-mm Hmm-mm Hmm-mm-mm
