I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until the darkness grows

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
Seen people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it happens every day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and must have it painted black
Maybe I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
Not easy facing up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go deeper into blue
I could not see this thing that's happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
Seen people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it happens every day

I wanna see it tainted, tainted, tainted black
Black as night, yeah, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it tainted, tainted, tainted black
Oh, no no no
