Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones cover) Lyrics
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!

rolling stones cover, and a damn good one too might I add
This song fucking sick. I like this better than the original. Although I still love the Stones.
hella yeah.
i never liked the rolling stones and i predicted that neither would the black dahlia murder.there is a big differince between them. i dont see why they would be 1 of there influences. is that the whole point of the cover? somebody help me here!
no that is not the point of the cover
This cover is the shit! That's all there is to it.
Did you mean SUCKS or SOX? Haha learn to spell...
Ehh I guess you have to a certain taste for music with appeal instead of all this crappy myspace grindcore bullshit that's spreading. Black dahlia murder owns, better than what most bands are trying to attempt on sounding like.
Why wouldn't you like the rolling stones? They're amazing if it's because you don't like the softer type of music then you should be a little more open minded and give it a chance. I also love the black dahlia murder btw.
I like the rolling stones, and I repect their music. I just never got into them as much as other bands. I like soft music? Who says I don't? Hah
I've never heard the Rolling Stones version of the song, but I've heard the Judas Priest cover of it. Although the BDM is one of my favorite bands, they didn't do too well with the cover.
