Black (feat. Norah Jones)

We touch the walls of a city street, and didn't explain
 Sadly, showed us our ways
 Of never asking why
 Cast down, it was Heaven-sent, and
 To the church, no intent to repent
 On my knees, just to cry
 
 Until you travel to that place you can't come back
 Where the last pain is gone and all that's left is black
 Bright nights cease coming to me
 And some day they'll punish my deeds, and they'll find
 All the crimes
 But then, they ask when they going to see them
 Then they're gonna ask to feel the ghosts, the walls, the dreams
 Oh, I've got mine
 At last, those coming came, and they never looked back
 ♪
 With blinding stars in their eyes but all they saw was black
 Fooled them, hoping to seem like the slayer of evil
 But the product of greed, and
 It's not a mask, so be honest with me
 They can't afford to ignore that I'm a disease
 Practical, since we had to be, and
 When they were old, they came back to me
 And they tried, oh, they tried
 And when you follow through and wind up on your back
 ♪
 Looking up at no stars in the sky, those white clouds have turned it black
