Black and Blue

I'm a man of my word someone who most can trust
And can always be forbearing
Every penny I've earned has gone to heal
Others open wounds
And when the stitches all sealed then I don't mind
To treat myself to a little pudding
But it's mostly cause I need to live a little too

And even in the darkest days
When there is no heat or lava
And you can glide through the center of the earth
I've been told to smile
Even when I'm angry
And little did I know that it's true

Even though I keep my eyes open
I still see black and blue
All we can do is be sheep
And if it's not stopping soon
Then perhaps I'll grab a drink
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon
The night brings out the moon

A day goes by or a year or two
And I still hear voices chanting
It's not a breeze to appease the whole herd
When there's millions of others hiding
And I can count off the top of my head
To numbers numbers higher
If I'm free then when the cattle roam the ranch
Are they as free as I am?

And even in the darkest days
When there is no heat or lava
And you can glide through the center of the earth
I've been told to smile
Even when I'm angry
And little did I know that it's true

Even though I keep my eyes open
I still see black and blue
All we can do is be sheep
And if it's not stopping soon
Then perhaps I'll grab a drink
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon
The night brings out the moon

Even though I keep my eyes open
I still see black and blue
All we can do is be sheep
And if it's not stopping soon
Then perhaps I'll grab a drink
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon

Even though I keep my eyes open
I still see black and blue
All we can do is be sheep
And if it's not stopping soon
Then perhaps I'll grab a drink
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon
'Cause in the long haul the night brings out the moon
