Paroles de Black & Blue

Have you ever heard that love, is a metaphor A metaphor for The taste of the bottom The fall to the floor I fall to the floor I remember me and you I remember what you did I remember being numb I remember feeling sick For the taste of the bottom, the fall to the floor Have you ever heard love is a metaphor For the way you failed me And now I'm failing you (I want you to listen very, very carefully) Like the serpents tongue, like the storm that shakes me Like the hand that beats me, till I'm black and blue Like the autumn chill, like the love that failed me Let the earth remove me Black and blue Black and blue Have you ever heard that death is a metaphor A metaphor for What if I'm not good enough What if I'm not strong enough What if I'm not kind enough For what happens next For what happens then What happens then Like the serpents tongue, like the storm that shakes me Like the hand that beats me until I'm black and blue Like the autumn chill, like the love that failed me Let the earth remove me Black and blue Like the serpents tongue, like the storm that shakes me The hand that beats me black and blue Like the autumn chill We can stay here, get the shit kicked out of us Or we can fight our way back, into the light And decline our hell, moving one inch at a time
