[Verse 1: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
While this black cloud follows me
Open my chest and feel me weep
The world opens its crust for me
Rain down on me, God, swallow me

[Pre-Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
Through caverns wide and oceans deep
I drag my weary head and feet
Rain down on me, God, swallow me
The Black Dog will not let me be

[Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
While this black cloud follows me
And forces me down to my knees
Open your crust Earth and swallow me
While this black cloud follows me

[Verse 2: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
I followed you, got on my knees
Rain down on me, please, let me sleep
Open the earth and swallow me
I'm begging you, let me be free

[Pre-Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
Through caverns wide and oceans deep
I drag my weary head and feet
Rain down on me, God swallow me
The Black Dog will not let me be
[Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
While this black cloud follows me
And forces me down to my knees
Open your crust Earth and swallow me
While this black cloud follows me

[Breakdown: Joel Birch]
They said you died to set us free
So I chained myself down on my knees
They said you died to set us free
So I chained myself down on my knees
Down on my knees

[Bridge: Ahren Stringer]
This black cloud follows me
And forces me down to my knees
Open your crust Earth and swallow me
While this black cloud follows me

[Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
While this black cloud follows me
And forces me down to my knees
Open your crust Earth and swallow me
While this black cloud follows me

[Outro: Joel Birch & Ahren Stringer]
Black cloud
Black cloud
Black cloud
Black cloud
While this black cloud follows me
