urthboy - black dog lyrics

[verse 1]
yeah, yeah
he never thought he’d think of k!lling himself
n0body had a doubt of anything to do with his health
he wasn’t ever that kind of gentleman that needed help
just an everyday bloke tyna handle what he’d been dealt
but it was steadily more difficult to conceal
when he was too proud to reveal, the loneliest fear that he feels
envious of those on an even keel
’cause from where he’s sitting that disposition is completely unreal
it’s not like his car’s lost any one of its wheels
it’s just as if it’s been clamped up, secured and sealed
yo, he’s flown the white flag and shown he’d yield
yet the black dog relentlessly honed his heel
in a planet of 6 bill’, still not a soul to understand
too long ago relinquished the upper hand
got him suffocated, tightened like a c-mmerbund
recalls what happy is but that’s for another man

[verse 2]
yeah, yeah
his path is lonely, even when it’s public
the clown cries tears, the crowd cheers and loves it
coils with his inner turmoil, cups it, tucks it
neatly, keeps ’em sweetly unfl-stered
people of prominence are just as likely
even if they’re as hyped as hyphy, bright and feisty
they might be the john conrads and steve rogers
gold medals, best and fairest, they got notches
cars and ski lodges, they might even be doctors
tragic characters, silver screen operas
convinced that they’re imposters, row with one oar
ones that made themselves now think they’re done for
and they can’t talk, someone on the mute b-tton
men die in bachelor pads, n0body knew nuttin’
the view from here is as grey as vacant car parks
don’t ask why it’s so hard to laugh

[verse 3]
it’s 2 a.m, he’s wandering streets alone
can’t remember these avenues, they feel unknown
listen to the drone of a distant truck, compression brakes
afraid of the frailty of the things he’d set in place
he’s had better days, some worse than others
not the kind of fella proud of sleeping in under the covers
close up the shutters, take the phone off the hook
and if they enquire he’ll reply he was crook
it overtook him too long ago and took his honour
slow but surely, imprisoned like s. corby
17 years since he celebrated 40
too many candles to blow out, and it’s too corny
he might make a decision and set off a chain of events
find a way to say what he meant
but he’s spent just looking to get by the black dog
in the corner of his eye won’t back off…

[chorus]
yeah
getting stalked by the black dog
stalked by the black dog
you back down but still he won’t back off
trying to navigate without a map of
the way home, stalked by the black dog
stalked by the black dog
follow [?], why doesn’t it back off?
getting followed, followed by the black dog
getting stalked by the black dog
stalked by the black dog
you back down but still he won’t back off
trying to navigate without a map of
the way home, stalked by the black dog
stalked by the black dog
follow [?], why doesn’t it back off?
getting stalked by the black dog
