[Verse 1]
When I was younger, I wanted to be
a famous rockstar and appear on MTV
my life was fine; I knew I would thrive
so many friends around; so many stars to count
[Pre-chorus 1]
Then you came around
Offered me the apple; took a bite
My life is upside down
I don't know what I have become
[Chorus]
Why do I dress all black
I look the way I feel inside
Only God can save me
From my sins and mistakes
Please put yourself in my shoes
Not even Freud can understand
All the things inside my head…
[Verse 2]
God never judged me; He loves me for me
darkness depends on light; such a dichotomy
I gotta admit I've had a good run
No reason to complain, no reason to give up
[Pre-chorus 2]
Then you came around
Just to bully me and take me down
I’ve had enough of that
I will never be like you…
[Chorus]
Why do I dress all black
I look the way I feel inside
Only God can save me
From my sins and mistakes
Please put yourself in my shoes
Not even Freud can understand
All the things inside my head…
[Bridge]
My soul is not for sale
God come and save me now!
[Chorus]
Why do I dress all black
I look the way I feel inside
Only God can save me
From my sins and mistakes
Please put yourself in my shoes
Not even Freud can understand
All the things inside my head…
[Last Chorus]
I can finally see
The light that comes from above
I am finally free
From my sins and mistakes
I can keep counting the stars
all the bad memories are dead
focused on the road ahead.
