Black Is the New Black - Holding Sand

Black Is the New Black Lyrics

It's the same old routine since you've gone away
I'm waking up all alone every single day
I'm taking care of myself but sometimes I think
What if I slip and bang my head on the sinkWill the neighbor notice than I didn't go home
That I don't pick up the telephone
Or will she wait until I rot and stink
When a big fat fly drowns in her drinkBlack, Black is the new black
Everytime I strive, I don't live
I just surviveBut I shouldn't let my thoughts stray
God I am still alive, it's my lucky day
The sun goes down and I'm doing fine
As long as I stay away from every spineThe butcher knives and the microwave
The magazines that cut like razorblades
The sun goes down and I'm doing good
I can let it go and pass out in the bedroomBlack, Black is the new black
Everytime I strive, I don't live
I just surviveDespite what I said, you'll always be more than just a friend to me.
