Black Is the Soul Lyrics

As it all falls down, do I walk away?
Or do I stand my ground and accept my fate?
And there's a faceless cry, that twists my every dream
And almost every night I hear the demon sing

Why are we going on this way?
Why do we play these games in vain?
Nothing's gonna break it down and build us back again
So why did the path have to lead this way?
Black is the soul that's led astray
You're leading me to places I can never follow


Happiness is found in darkest ways
And as I searched around, I've made nothing but mistakes
And there's a faceless cry, that twists my every dream
And almost every night I hear the demon sing


Why are we going on this way?
Why do we play these games in vain?
Nothing's gonna break it down and build us back again
So why did the path have to lead this way?
Black is the soul that's led astray
You're leading me to places I can never follow

And when you scream you push me so much further ahead
And when I leave, I always walk right back again
And when you cry the tears are cleansing bitterness
I'm out of time, I'm slowly dying give me back my LIFE!

Just give me back my life

Why are we going on this way?
Why do we play this game
Nothing's gonna break it down and build us back again
So why did the path have to lead this way?
Black is the soul that's led astray
You're leading me to places I can never follow

As it all falls down, do I walk away
Or do I stand my ground, there's nothing left to say

Song Fact
Cover art for Black Is the Soul lyrics by KoЯn

For me, this song hit home as an internal struggle concerning events in my life and a pattern of repetition I seem to be locked into. I fits like a glove, however it very well have been meant I to be a toboggan, a sock, or maybe a scarf. Music is what you need it to be.
