Black Would Be White
Plazma Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My tears don't let my flowers fade
My song fell silent in the shade
I'm numbed I'm standing still in fear
All that I lived for, disappears
The air, I breathe, is getting close
I'm choking feeling so exposed
I've come to kneel here in the dirt
To everyone I've ever hurt

Black would be white
If you would only hold my hand
Black would be white
I'd be yours
Wrong would be right
If you would only touch my hand
Night would be light
I'd be yours

I tried so hard to keep the flame
From being put out by the rain
That was my poor and last attempt
The darkest dream I ever dreamt
My sun is black, my rain is blood
Mixed in the mourning coloured flood
It's true, you won't know heaven well
If you have never been in hell

Black would be white
If you would only hold my hand
Black would be white
I'd be yours
Wrong would be right
If you would only touch my hand
Night would be light
I'd be yours

I'd be yours

Black would be white
If you would only hold my hand
Black would be white
I'd be yours
Wrong would be right
If you would only touch my hand




Night would be light
I'd be yours

The lyrics suggest that the person is longing for connection and comfort in the midst of pain and loss.

Мои слезы не дадут завянуть моим цветам,
Моя песня затихла в тени,
Я остолбенел и стою здесь в страхе
Ведь все, для чего я жил, исчезло.
Мне не хватает воздуха, мне трудно дышать
Я задыхаюсь, чувствую себя беззащитным,
Я пал на колени в грязь
Перед каждым, кого я когда-то обидел...

Припев:

Черная полоса моей жизни стала бы белой,
Если бы ты только взяла меня за руку,
Черное стало бы белым,
Я был бы твоим...
И то, что когда-то считалось неправильным, стало бы верным,
Если бы ты только прикоснулась к моей руке,
Ночь была бы светлой,
Я был бы твоим...

У Фредди Меркюри и вокал и слух гораздо круче был, но не успел, а у них всё как бы- но ни фига. Потому что, изначально нихрена не было. Чего тут хорошего

Irida

@Katya Ilkun при чем тут Меркюри?! они сами по себе хороши. Еще с Карузо сравните

Anya

Какая же красивая песня... И такой глубокий текст

Troll or Call

Помню ещё на MTV в 2003 году они вышли и начали говорить на чистом русском, только тогда я узнал что Plazma наши соотечественники. Поверить было в это трудно, потому как песни звучат очень круто - мировой уровень

Футбольная Самара

Они с Волгограда

Troll or Call

@Футбольная Самара я в курсе, в их продюсер Маликов
