lyrics

There’s a black ink stain on my bed sheet
It will fade, but never go
There’s pain written inside our closet doors
That only you and I know

At first I tried to wash my sheets
As thoroughly as I could
Scrub away the text
On the orange painted wood

Seeing as it wouldn’t go
I had to claim it to be mine
Now I will say I love it so
Hoping my mind will redefine

Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it remains
As dark it’s written in my head
Like the black ink on my bed
Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it remains
Black ink stains

It’s not that I want to get rid
Of the past and the mistakes
What if it stays forever though
What if don’t reap what I sew
Will I do whatever it takes

To get you back
To write more mania on my walls
Spill more ink on my bed
Try another call

Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it will stay
As bright it’s written in my brain
Like the writings it will remain
Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it remains
Black ink stains

Don’t wash your face, don’t wash your hands
Cover the filth, with our wild romance
Don’t wash your face, don’t wash your hands
Cover the filth, with our wild romance
Don’t wash your face, don’t wash your hands
Cover the filth, with our wild romance

Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it remains
As dark it’s written in my head
Like the black ink on my bed
Slowly it may fade
But as vague as it remains
Black ink stains

The sun went down and Tommy Brown stood up. This nightowl spent many days and euro’s on nightlife, love, and music.
With his self-reflecting indiefolk, Tommy Brown makes music that drags you along and confronts you while doing so, his rarely subtle persona tends to do that also.
