Laura Jane Grace & the Devouring Mothers - Born in Black Lyrics

Dancing towards the abyss
You and me, swallowed up by a black hole
In perpetual concession, infinite distance, eternal displacement
I cannot escape the pull
Fall into the collapse, let the time stretch
Doorways to the unknown
Where hurt becomes love, and pain is happiness

Born in black
We've only ever wanted to go back
Born in black
Explode out of the ether
Abandoned back into it

Dancing towards the abyss
You and me, swallowed up by a black hole
In perpetual concession, I think I understand it now
I cannot escape the pull
Fall into the collapse, let the time stretch
The great distance unknown
This way to the exit, there's no turning back

Born in black
We've only ever wanted to go back
Born in black
Explode out of the ether
Abandoned back into it

Born in black
We've only ever wanted to go back
Born in black
Explode out of the ether
Abandoned back into it

Born in black
We've only ever wanted to go back
Born in black
Suicide medicine
Kill yourself to live

Born in black
We knew where this is going, sweet illicit death
Born in black
This is where we begin and this is where we end
