Magnum - Black Skies

Now you don’t know
Just how I feel
Nothing I hear
Makes it seem real
I’d be amazed
If we survive
We don’t relate
Being alive

Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know

Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There’s no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake

The problem I have
Don’t know who I am
I might be the ghost
Of every man
It’s hard to fit in
This world today
Some of us blessed
And carried away

Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know

Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?

Gone as the sunlight fills
My eyes with a sorrow
And without warning kills
The flame of tomorrow

Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There’s no escape
Crimson the blood of us all
Make no mistake

Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Walking away from it all
How to prevail?
