Blackheart

What's a creature like you
doing on top of this tower
with your dark-grey fins
yeah, you shouldn't be here

Why would a creature like you
stare right at the sun
when you have spiky gills and
when you cannot breathe air

Once upon a time
under these dark waters
Once upon a time
black heart before and after

What's a creature like you
doing above the water
with your blood-red eyes
it was never worth it

Why would a creature like you
force yourself into the other world
when you know that you'll never make it
you will never get what you need

Once upon a time
under these dark waters
Once upon a time
black heart before and after

What's a person like you
doing on top of this tower
with no feathery wings
and say that they don't understand

Why would a person like you
stare right at these headlights
and throw away the gift
the greatest gift you ever had
