Black Dog

There’s a black dog that follows me
And it never relents, no it never relents
It hunts me down in my waking dreams
And I can’t throw off the scent, I can’t throw off the scent

Its breath is heavy with the smell of prey
And I don’t know where to run, I don’t know where to run
I cry for help but to my dismay
I can’t find anyone, I can’t find anyone

I’m running out of time
I’m running out of faith
I’m running out of anything I can hold on to
My window’s closing soon
I’m totally consumed
I just want something I feel like I can belong to

There’s a black hole that swallows me
And its drawing me in, yes its drawing me in
Plunging into Infinity
Ending where it begins, ending where it begins

Bearings lost
Doubts severe
I can’t end up stranded here
I can hear the void call out to me
I don’t know
For how long
I can resist its siren song
If I don’t find some kind of relief

I’m running out of time
I’m running out of faith
I’m running out of anything I can hold on to
My window’s closing soon
I’m totally consumed
I just want something I feel like I can belong to
