Broke down at the end of the night,
can't seem to get anything right,
so numb I can't feel things anymore
somehow can feel me letting go
I know theres so many things that I
need to do and I need to say
no matter how hard I try I can't get the words out right
man down tie a ribbon around my soul
I'm in the black and I'm outta control
like a ship thats lost in the night
with no direction or a guiding light
man down and I'm drowing in the pain
face down like a needle in the vein
you're the only thing that keeps me sane
but somehow I can't keep you out of my rain
I see you standing in the rain
the lights of the city feels so bright
all these colors I've got inside
in these streets I feel like a foriegner
and all I paint is myself in a corner
going on seems to hurt so much
all the world seems so cold to the touch
when I go to sleep I don't dream
I just see the black television screen
man down tie a ribbon around my soul
I'm in the black and I'm outta control
like a ship thats lost in the night
with no direction or a guiding light
man down and I'm drowing in the pain
face down like a needle in the vein
you're the only thing that keeps me sane
but somehow I can't keep you out of my rain
I see you standing in the rain
tie a ribbon for the child in me
on every door and on every tree
make it black for the way that I feel
cause black is the only color thats real
man down tie a ribbon around my soul
I'm in the black and I'm outta control
like a ship thats lost in the night
with no direction or a guiding light
man down and I'm drowing in the pain
face down like a needle in the vein
you're the only thing that keeps me sane
but somehow I can't keep you out of my rain
I see you standing in the rain
broke down at the end of the night
can't seem to get anything, right
