I like it black

By Ward

The clock strikes midnight
And I like it black
It engulfs me, hides me, blinds me, comforts me.

In the blackness every few minutes I am
Your young, CEO millionaire
Every child's sports hero.
The hunky actor on the glossy cover
That makes all the girls weak.
And thats why I like it black.

In the blackness I'm not me.
I had direction, I didn't hesitate, procrastinate.
I didn't quit, didn't fail
She didn't leave, my parents still believed
I wasn't the faker fool with candy promisses
And thats why I like it black.

In the blackness
I'm everybody's comfort
Had all your answers.
Listened with a tuned ear, quick with the sharpest wits
And that 24 hour smile.
And thats why I like it black.

The morning arrives
I can see me in the reality.
And thats why I like it black.
