Paint It Black (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
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 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
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes
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
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!

I think this is a great cover of the song. They did it well. This song reminds me of being depressed and just hating the world, and not being able to concentrate on everyday life until the depression passes.
I first heard this cover on a Stir of Echoes trailor for the movie and knew i had to get it. awesome
In my opinion, they did the best cover of this song. It's almost my theme song..
I think this song may be about some guy who got dumped by his girlfriend "with flowers and my love never to come back" "maybe then i'll fade away and not have to face the facts"
This is such a good song on stir of echoes
i think the song means that his girlfriend died and now he is in a depression stage after the death of a loved one and maybe hes thinking about killing himself
ya gob did a great job of covering the song. especially cus paint it black was such a well known song
