Black
Doomsday Refreshment Committee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Down deep inside
That's where it hides
A part if you so black
It never dies

There's only so much
That you can hide away
Your HELL is coming
And hell you will pay

There is no love
Breed only hate
It's time to wake up
Accept your fate

Come into me
And you will see
I am the everything
That you hope to be

I am the strong
I will survive
And I will never be
A drone in the hive

The war I wage
Will be won




The taste of victory
Army Of One!

@emokid1623 Yeah i know who he is, I use to live with him for almost a year ;)

daddy4kawaii

Why did he stop making music? If he would have put a little more effort into it and figured out how to play live (if he didn't) I believe it would have taken off

Bryan Hale

I know he did a live show in NY a while back. But I have not heard from him in years due to moving out of state. But I agree if he pushed his potential out more he would have got big. Told him that all the time.

Jamie Swaggerty
