sail into the black

Singer: machine head

we sail into the black

we sail into the black

we sail into the black

we sail into the black

and all those secrets got lost in your eyes

and all those regrets

you hold inside

and all those memories

left by design

and all those mysteries

lost in your eyes

lost in your eyes

we sail into the black

we sail into the black

and all those footsteps

washed in the tides

and all those droplets

blood into wine

and all those heartaches

tears that you've cried

and all those mistakes washed in the tides

washed in the tides

we sail into the black

we sail into the black

i stare at the stricken

the follies of man

and the horror that lives in your eyes

and once were forgiven

the mind explodes in waves of terror

burn my eyes

tear at the skin

the crawling beneath will begin

side by side

pounding the heretic drums

as we rise or we fall

and all these scars

the nightmare it calls

the fear and betrayal begin

we've come so far

the shit we ingest

with a mouthful of spit and protest

we sail into the black

the black candle fades

go disappear

lost and forever broken

shattered like glass

the scars and the sex

the lies and the fables we tell

and all we are

this fate is your choice

regrets that you'll take to the grave

these threads of silk that held this together

rotting and curdled as milk

we sail into the black
