So I got up to bat

And I swung real hard

Verse 1

this bridge is falling down

 and just like it was before

its bad, and I made it recur

crossed the bridge and

 it caught my attention

an ocean diluting frustration

so I smashed it down in

search of contentment

I fell down and into the ocean

now I am wet, shivering wasted

and I recognize my degeneration

Chorus 1

I can see so clearly now

that I'm searching for simplicity

I can face the problem now

as I look into the mirror

I don't hate you

as a crutch when I am dependent

I reach out and it wont reject me

as a blanket when you need warmth

it surrounds me but it still feels cold

i can see so clearly now

when i look into your eyes

i don't hate you

18.) Paint It Black

I see a red door and I want to paint it 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 quickly look away

Like a newborn baby it just happens every day

I look inside my self and see my heart is back

I see my red door , I must have it painted black

Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts

It's not easy facing 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 setting sun,

My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want to paint it 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 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.

Yea!
