Lyrics
Black Rainbow (ASCAP)
Jon Beckwith Moore
I saw a rainbow it was black
There's not much time for me to get back
It seems I've lost myself today
Don't understand, why I wanna stay, ah ah
Take away the pain take this black rainbow from my brain
Take away my pain take this black rainbow from my brain
Take away the pain take this black rainbow from my brain
Take away my pain take this black rainbow from my brain
I woke underneath my soul
Everywhere I look there is a black hole
Got nothing left inside to pay
All my eyes can see are black and grey ah ah
Chorus
Won't you help me find my way
Lead me out of this emptiness
Can you take the fog away
Lift my spirits, bring the color back into my day
Solo
Another day of blue and grey
Guess I'll get used to it and stay
Maybe someday I'll find a better day
But until then I'll lock my tears away
Chorus
