. I never wear white White is for virgins Children in summer Brides in the park.
My color is black black black Black is for secrets Outlaws and dancers For the poet of the dark.
Black is the truth Of my situation And for those of my station In life, all the colors lie.
I never wear white White is too blinding Always reminding Of the innocent who fall.
My color is black black black For the crone, and the bastard The school girl in uniform The servant in the hall.
Black is the truth Of my situation And those of my station In life, all the colors lie.
My color is black black black Like the gangster and widow It's the shade and the shadow It's the depth into your eye. My color is black black black black black.
