lyrics

In the dark water he saw three fish,
they said give us some gold and we'll grant you one wish.
he said I want to see what's inside of me,
they said pay up my friend that wish ain't cheap.

They merge, an image forms,
they show the man what's in his heart,
he feels a strange relief,
he's staring at what he thought he'd see,
black hole, black hole, we finally meet.

Black hole, black hole,
what you gonna swallow,
black hole, black hole,
will you leave me my tomorrow,
black hole, black hole,
I don't know how you grew and grew but
my soul, my soul,
I need it more than you.

In the dark water he stared all night,
until the moon set and the sun arrived,
in that clear mirror he sees his curse,
knows not to fight it it'll only get worse.

His feet grow fins,
skin is scale and then,
he takes a breath so sweet,
he's diving in the crimson deep,
black hole, black hole, won't you swim with me.

Black hole, black hole,
what you gonna swallow,
black hole, black hole,
already gave you my tomorrow,
black hole, black hole,
nothing left but to swim with you but,
black hole, black hole,
tell me my lonesome days are through.
