Black dog barking in the cold grey light
|
He pulls the chain and he pulls it tight
|
This ain't no lonesome wail that boy ain't faking
|
He bites the steel and he claws the ground
|
He pulls again and he spins around
|
His eyes are raging and his burning lungs are steaming
|
|
He wanna walk in the sun
|
Feel love like anyone
|
No one knows that black dog better than I
|
I said no one knows that black dog better than I
|
|
When I see his running I can see me
|
Teeth in the collar and he's tearing it free
|
Spit out the leather and the cold studs that kept you from singing
|
Run till you're bleeding run till you're hot
|
till the memory of all this you've long since forgot
|
Run till forever till the bells of your freedom are ringing
|
|
He wanna walk in the sun
|
Feel love like anyone
|
No one knows that black dog better than I
|
I said no one knows that black dog better than I
|
