Lyrics

Time stops
When the whispers blare
The voices drop hard
But the eyes still stare
The world resolves
Into a death head grin
Because I walk with pride
With a black girlfriend
My mom
Said not to bring her around
'Cause she's black, my family would put her down
I'll break
The white-trash ties that bind
Trade a love so pure
For a hate so blind
She said, she said
"Forget the fact that I don't look like you"
She said, she said
"You're possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain"
Time stops
When we lie so close
In my room where we share what no one knows
From the day that we start
Until the day that we end
I know, I know, I know now
We will never find a place where we could just fit in
Me and my black girlfriend
Friend
She said, she said
"Fend for yourself, you're alone
Go"
She said, she said
"You're possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain"
A power bigger than the pain
A power bigger than the pain
Heartspark dollarsign
Heartspark dollarsign
