Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
And the sun in my disgrace
[Verse 2]
Boiling heat
Summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name
Through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again
[Verse 3]
Black hole sun, won't you come
Wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come? Won't you come?
[Verse 4]
Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone
For honest men
Sometimes far too long for snakes
[Verse 5]
In my shoes
Walking sleep
And my youth, I pray to keep
Heaven send
Hell away
No one sings like you anymore
[Verse 6]
Black hole sun, won't you come
Wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come?
[Verse 7]
Black hole sun, won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come?
[Verse 8]
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
[Verse 9]
Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just disappear
[Verse 10]
Black hole sun, won't you come
Wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come?
[Verse 11]
Black hole sun, won't you come
And wash away the rain?
Black hole sun, won't you come?
Won't you come?
[Verse 12]
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Black hole sun, black hole sun
Won't you come?
Yeah
Come
Black hole sun, black hole sun
