Black Tiles

Watch the way they wait in line
 Play this game with me in time
 I see the way you look at me
 Your eyes filled with cruelty
 You don't have to confess
 To sleeping in the lion's den
 There is no end, no beginning
 Are you my friend?
 Black tiles in a line
 Watch them fall serpentine
 I see the snake in your eyes
 Are you set to tell me lies?
 Don't try to fight it, 'cause you won't, you won't
 Let it go, it's not wrong
 All we can hope for is a light
 That shines on after we're gone
 For all we know we're just here
 For the length, the length of the song
 I hope I know when it's done
 When it's gone
 No one knows what happens next
 There's no answer and no guess
 Don't look at me, I'm doing fine
 I'm just not your kind
 Look away, don't move too fast
 Fall forward, jump back
 There is no end, no beginning
 The warrior is not a foe and not a friend
 Don't try to fight it, 'cause you won't, you won't
 Let go, it's not wrong
 All we can hope for is a light
 That shines on after we're gone
 For all we know we're just here
 For the length, the length of the song
 I never know when it's done
 When it's gone
