No colors anymore I want them to turn black


Con Artist Trickster (a reader of the blog) reminded me of this great song. Paint it black by the Rolling Stones. You can find the lyrics on the youtube video. Dark lyrics...I love this verse:

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

Especially the last line...it really is easy to hide in darkness and shut to yourself when "the whole world is black". We think we can make it better by doing so...and the truth is it sometimes is comforting...at least for a while. Enjoy!

PS: Thanks again Con Artist Trickster! Check out his blog also! http://conartrick.blogspot.com/

  1. Woohoo! My favorite song is here!

    "I wanna see it painted black, painted black
    Black as night, black as coal
    I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
    I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
    Yeah !!"

    Thanks a lot for this song. :)
