Black Skies - Magnum

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?
