Paint it Black
Restos Fósiles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No mas colores quiero que cambien al negro,
Veo las chicas caminar vestidas de verano
Tengo que darme vuelta antes de que mi oscuridad se vaya
Veo una linea de autos pintados de negro
Con flores y mi amor ya nunca va a volver
Veo gente darse vuelta es fácil no mirar a otro lado
Como un recién nacido esto pasa todos los días
Veo mi puerta roja y la quiero de negro
Quiza desaparezca y no tenga que enfrentarme a los hechos
No es fácil cuando todo el mundo se convierte en negro
No mas mi verde mar se torna azul profundo
No pude repetir que esto te este pasando
Si miro mas que suficiente es la puesta del sol
Mi amor reirá contigo antes que venga la mañana!
Paint in black!!
Paint in black!!
Paint in black!!
Paint in black!!
Paint in black!!
Paint in black!!
The lyrics of Restos Fósiles' "Paint It Black" describe the singer's desire to remove all colors from their world and paint everything black. They see a red door and want it painted black, and they observe people walking by dressed in summer clothes, but they turn away before their darkness disappears. The singer sees a line of cars painted black with flowers, and they know their love will never return. They witness people turning away, pretending not to see the darker sides of life, like a newborn child unaware of the world around them. The singer sees that their heart is black and they want their red door painted black, so they do not have to face the truth. They lament the difficulty of coping with a world that becomes black, even their green sea turns a deep blue. The singer seems to be struggling with the loss of love and is unable to comprehend why this is happening. Finally, the repeated phrase "paint it black" shows the singer's desire to obliterate all color and avoid confronting their emotions.
