So how many musicians do we have on Rauk?+

 

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 my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just 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 then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you

If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

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

Hmm, hmm, hmm,...

I wanna see it tainted, tainted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it tainted, tainted, tainted, tainted black

so on with lyrics and there isn't a lot one can follow Paint it Black with, but this one may just cut it..

Hello darkness my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping

Left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains

Within the sound of silence

Thumbs up too for Bob D, apparently a huge influence on Jimi Hendrix, so on that weak excuse:

As for Dylan, i love some his words but find the voice a bit willowy when exposed to it for too long! 

'Love Minus Zero' is fantastic, although i'm certainly no Bobophile. I love the way he rolls his verses over on this one (and on many others i'm sure).

''My love is like some raven at the window with a broken wing'

Great Stuff

 

The Devil's Decade Lyrics

by The Skids

I never seen December
Look this bad before
The paper mill is closing
Death is on our shore
Mines are slowly turning
Brothers don't come home
Father lies still coughing
Releasing us a moan;

We stood by our union
Holding up the flag
The union stood by watching
While we buried dad
Mother doesn't talk now
Only to her soul
Children hungry children
Let the people know;

Christmas was upon us
Everyone was there
Christmas was upon us
With nothing left to share
The church was holding sermon
Ringing out a bell
We all prayed for mercy
Take us from this hell
Oh mother of mine
Release us from evil, oh show us a sign
Oh mother of mine
Your children are bleeding, please show us a sign
Oh mother of mine
Release us from evil, oh show us a sign
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
