Black Swan by Megadeth Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought a desire worth any pleasure
Could never really be a sin in vain
A hundred and one shots of opportunity
I'd gladly take them all again, and again, and again

[Pre-Chorus]
My angels left me with sorrows all my own
And now I'm here with the devil all my own

[Chorus 1]
Just like a churchyard shadow
Creeping after me
It's only there to terrify my mind
A black swan keeps haunting me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I promised on my soul not to get carried away
It always starts out psychedelic
And then it turns to black
My head starts swaying
I forgot what it was that I was saying?
I don't know where I am and I'll never, never make it back
I sealed my fate, and I paid my debt
I fell from grace with deep regret

[Pre-Chorus]
My angels left me with sorrows all my own
And now I'm here with the devil all my own

[Chorus 1]
Just like a churchyard shadow
Creeping after me
It's only there to terrify my mind
A black swan keeps haunting me

[Chorus 2]
Just like a churchyard shadow
There's nothing left to see
It's only there to terrify my mind
A black swan keeps haunting me

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
My angels left me with sorrows all my own
And now I'm here with the devil all my own
All my own
[Chorus 1]
Just like a churchyard shadow
Creeping after me
It's only there to terrify my mind
A black swan keeps haunting me

[Chorus 2]
Just like a churchyard shadow
There's nothing left to see
It's only there to terrify my mind
A black swan keeps haunting me

[Outro]
Just like a churchyard shadow
Creeping after me
There's nothing left to see
There's nothing left of me
