Whatsoever I've feared has come to life

And whatsoever I've fought off, became my life

Just when every day seemed to greet me with a smile

Sunspots have faded, now I'm doing time

Now I'm doing time

'Cause I've fell on black days

I've fell on black days (black days)

Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now

And whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down

Searchlight so they say, but I can't see it in the night

I'm only faking when I get it right

When I get it right

'Cause I've fell on black days

I've fell on black days (black days)

How would I know that this could be my fate?

How would I know that this could be my fate?

So what you wanted to see good has made you blind

And what you wanted to be yours, just made it mine

So don't you lock up something that you wanted to see fly

Hands are for shaking, no, not tying

No, not tying

I sure don't mind a change

I sure don't mind a change

Yeah, I sure don't mind

I sure don't mind a change

I sure don't mind a change

But I've fell on black days

I've fell on black days

How would I know that this could be my fate?

How would I know that this could be my fate?

How would I know that this could be my fate?

How would I know that this could be my fate?

I sure don't mind a change
