You take me right up to the top of the world
Then you push me over the side
Like an addiction to a four-letter word
Victim of the Western decline
I made a promise by the side of the road
That I would bury my Goddamn halo...
I got a heart made of black linen
I got a heart full of black (x2)
I'm trying to fight it but I don't know what for
There was something holding me back
I need to fight it more than ever before
Now I'm ready for the attack
I'll never be like what I wanna become
As long as you got a piece of the action
I got a heart made of black linen
I got a heart full of black (x2)
Show me (x8)
This doesn't happen to me everyday
I was feeling freer than life
I wanted heaven in an unknown way
God I feel like this all the time
I got to walk along the rocks on the tracks
So I shall attain my love back
I got a heart made of black linen
I got a heart full of black (x2)
