Black
is the overwhelming colour
That governs our fear,
It is the shadow in which we hide
Our saddened face, our falling tears...

Black
Is the colour of bitterness,
Of sorrow, and despair
The colour of our shattered dreams
We took so long to build and care.

Black
Is the colour of loneliness
That wounds us to the heart,
The colour that set reality
And our dreaming world apart...

Black
Is the colour of the night
As it sings its nocturnal song,
Black is the colour of darkness
Untrained of what is right or wrong.
