Black Skies Live by Magnum (Band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now you don't know
Just how I feel
Nothing I hear
Makes it seem real
I'd be amazed
If we survive
We don't relate
Being alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never gonna let it show
You know

[Chorus]
Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There's no escape
Crimson, the blood of us all
Oh, make no mistake
[Verse 2]
The problem I have
Don't know who I am
I might be the ghost
Of every man
It's hard to fit in
This world today
Some of us blessed, huh
And carried away

[Pre-Chorus]
Take this blood red rose
Go anywhere
Never let it show
You know

[Chorus]
Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Oh, walking away from it all
Oh, how to prevail?

[Bridge]
Gone as the sunlight fills
My eyes with a sorrow
And without warning kills
The flame of tomorrow
[Chorus]
Black skies draw near
Waiting for me
Captured and running through life
There's no escape
Crimson, the blood of us all
Make no mistake
Black skies are here
Leaning on me
Stranded but hidden in shame
All colours pale
Oh, walking away from it all
Oh, how to prevail?
