Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I could hug my love
Could I try for your wings
To cover me and let them fold?
Half alive, I heard the most brilliant lie
Sleepless eyes close the light
And dust the mind while I burn
[Verse 2]
Can't stutter when you're talkin' with your eyes
Like cuttin' out your tongue to save face
Or feeding on the blood that's runnin' from a black day
[Verse 3]
Cry on black rain
Cry on black rain
Cry on black rain
[Verse 4]
If I could hug my love
Could I try for your wings
To cover me and let them fold?
Sleepless eyes close the light
And dust the mind while I burn
[Verse 5]
You can't stutter when you're talkin' with your eyes
Like cuttin' out your tongue to save face
Or feeding on the blood that's runnin' from a black day
[Verse 6]
Cry on black rain
Cry on black rain
Cry on, cry on black rain
Black rain
Black rain
[Verse 7]
You can't stutter when you're talkin' with your eyes
Like cuttin' out your tongue to save face
Or feeding on the blood that's runnin' from a black day
