Fell on Black Days Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whatsoever I feared has come to light
Whatsoever I've fought off became my life
Just when every day seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded, now I'm doin' time, now I'm doin' time

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

[Verse 2]
Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down
Searchlight soul, they say, but I can't see it in the night
I'm only faking, when I get it right, when I get it right

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

[Post-Chorus]
How would I know that this could be my fate?
How would I know that this could be my fate?

[Verse 3]
So what you wanted to see good has made you blind
And what you wanted to be yours has made it mine
Don't you lock up somethin' that you wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking, no, not tying, no, not tying
[Bridge]
I sure don't mind a change
I sure don't mind a change
Sure don't mind a change

[Chorus]
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

[Post-Chorus]
How would I know that this could be my fate?
How would I know that this could be my fate?
How would I know that this could be my fate?
How would I know that this could be my fate?

[Outro]
I sure don't mind a change

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
