Paint It, Black - Mono

Lyrics

I see a red door
 And I want it painted black
 No colours 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 goes
 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
 And must have it painted black
 Maybe then I'll fade away
 And not have to face the facts
 It's not easy facing up
 When your whole world is black
 No more will my green sea
 Go turn a deeper blue
 I could not foresee
 This thing happening to you
 If I look hard enough
 Into the setting sun
 My love will laugh with me
 Before the morning comes
 I see a red door
 And I want it painted black
 No colours 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 goes
 ♪
 I wanna see it painted, painted black
 Black as night, black as coal
 I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
 I wanna see it painted, painted
 Painted, painted black
