Black Dog

Been here before, same shadows on the wall Dog black as midnight been sniffing round my door now, what do you want with me? Pad of his paws, the scratching of his claws Hot rank breath that you have felt beside you, what do you want with me? You hear him waiting there, he's always fucking waiting there That fucking dog is waiting there man, it's like he's always fucking waiting there What do you want with me? You've dogged my footsteps and darkened my door, Felt you waiting there so many times before, it's time you were on your way I fed you in the past, god knows that I took pity I won't feed you now, I won't give you anything, it's time you were on your way Jet black in its eye, maw that opens wide, breath that's fetid with the death of all that's bright What do you want with me? Jet black in its eye, maw that opens wide, breath that's fetid with the death of all that's bright What do you want with me? You and me we go way back, way back, back to the maylands, the greylands of childhood There were times when we played there, laid there, hazy for days yeah just hazy for days yeah There were also times we laid in the sun and like a river we'd run, I'm gonna keep on running It's time we were on our way, on our way There's a black dog coming, there's a black dog coming on Black dog coming on, feel it coming on There's a black dog coming, there's a black dog coming on Black dog coming on, feel it coming on There's a black dog coming, there's a black dog coming on Black dog coming on, feel it coming on
