“black hole sun” (lyrics)

VERSE 1:

in my eyes
indisposed
in disguise
as no one knows

Hides the face
Lies the snake
And the sun
In my disgrace

Boiling heat
Summer stench
‘Neath the black
The sky looks dead

Call my name
Through the cream
And I’ll hear you
Scream again

CHORUS:

Black hole sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain?

Black hole sun
Won’t you come?
Won’t you come?

VERSE 2:

Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind
Tired friend

Times are gone
For honest men
And sometimes
Far too long
For snakes

In my shoes
A walking sleep
And my youth
I pray to keep

Heaven send
Hell away
No one sings
Like you anymore

CHORUS:

(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)

VERSE 3:

Hang my head
Drown my fear
‘Til you all just disappear

CHORUS:

(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
(Black hole sun,
Black hole sun)
Won’t you come?
Won’t you come?
Won’t you come?
