The High Dials - My Heart Is Black lyrics

My heart is black The landscape's poison to my eyes Full of lies and false persuasion I wear a mask The rain is poison to my skin The streets have spies They will crush you Make a mockery of pride Crush and forget you Everyone says it's my perception But everything I know comes through my senses The black I see falls over me and you Corrupting all that's rare and true Oh! My heart is black I roam the city, there's no peace Still I try, still I reason I wear a mask The rain is poison to my skin They'll draw you in and deceive you Draw you in with their deceit Trick and deceive you
