Back Down the Black Songtext
von Boy & Bear

Cause you hurting
I can tell by the way that you move
You get your head on your chest and your chest in your mouth
You don′t look so good

There'll be change
′Cause this one's to big not to see
But brother you're scared and I′m scared when you′re scared
'Cause you ain′t surpose to be

So I'll scream out loud
Won′t you get out my way

'Cause I got the animal
I got the beast on a leash these days
So you don′t go wondering back down the black to the awful place

And help is well on it's way
You taught me too much to sit back and watch you this way
Just to watch you this way

There's a light sound that comes around
Like a raven in flight
A shivering child as the car windows left open overnight


And I watched it light up the moon again
And I watched it all disappear
Oh tether of life won′t you shephered me home again dear

So I scream out loud
Won′t you get out my way

'Cause I got the animal
I got the beast on a leash these days
So you don′t go wondering back down the black to the awful place

'Cause help is well on it′s way
You taught me too much to sit back and watch you this way
And I've been back down the black now before

And I won′t watch you this way
No I won't watch you this way

And Oh my legs don't work and my limbs all hurt
As my body aches to take the weight that′s
Been thrown down on top of you
Like you would do too

And Oh my legs don′t work and my limbs all hurt
As my body aches to take the weight that's
Been thrown down on top of you
Like you would do too


And Oh my legs don′t work and my limbs all hurt
As my body aches to take the weight that's
Been thrown down on top of you
Like you would do too

And oh my legs don′t work and my limbs all hurt
