Black dog barking in the cold grey light
He pulls the chain and he pulls it tight
This aint no lonesome wail that boy aint faking
He bites the steel and he claws the ground
He pulls again and he spins around
His eyes are raging and his burning lungs are steaming
He wanna walk in the sun
Feel love like anyone
No one knows that black dog better than i
I said no one knows that black dog better than i
When I see his running I can see me
Teeth in the collar and hes tearing it free
Spit out the leather and the cold studs that kept you from singing
Run till youre bleeding run till youre hot
Till the memory of all this youve long since forgot
Run till forever till the bells of your freedom are ringing
He wanna walk in the sun
Feel love like anyone
No one knows that black dog better than i
I said no one knows that black dog better than i
