"Black Heart" as written by Robert Emile Deleo, Dean Deleo, Eric Kretz and Chester C Bennington....
Black heart's comin', he?s a cold machine
Cuts like a knife, gentle and clean
Face like an angel, mind of a killer
Nobody else gonna love her better
Lay down now stay down
Took her life with a quick pull trigger
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Black heart's kickin' like a beating drum
Shooting her down the sound of his gun
No compassion, hard as an assassin
Falling deeper still in that reckless fashion
Lay down now stay down
Deeper and deeper with a blind man's passion
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead mans eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Rescue me
(If you don?t mind)
[x3]
If you don't mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Cuts like a knife, gentle and clean
Face like an angel, mind of a killer
Nobody else gonna love her better
Lay down now stay down
Took her life with a quick pull trigger
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Black heart's kickin' like a beating drum
Shooting her down the sound of his gun
No compassion, hard as an assassin
Falling deeper still in that reckless fashion
Lay down now stay down
Deeper and deeper with a blind man's passion
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead mans eyes
Down to his blackened heart
Rescue me
(If you don?t mind)
[x3]
If you don't mind
The color is all but faded
Out of a dead man's eyes
Down to his blackened heart
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

If you really searched for a metaphor in this song, you could make a case for it being about a guy who's a major player ("ladykiller") but that's a big stretch.
