  • Black heart's comin', he?s a cold machine
    Cuts like a knife, gentle and clean
    Face like an angel, mind of a killer
    Nobody else gonna love her better

    Lay down now stay down
    Took her life with a quick pull trigger

    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind

    The color is all but faded
    Out of a dead man's eyes
    Down to his blackened heart

    Black heart's kickin' like a beating drum
    Shooting her down the sound of his gun
    No compassion, hard as an assassin
    Falling deeper still in that reckless fashion

    Lay down now stay down
    Deeper and deeper with a blind man's passion

    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Well I don?t mind, I don?t mind
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Said I don?t mind if you don?t mind

    The color is all but faded
    Out of a dead mans eyes
    Down to his blackened heart

    Rescue me
    (If you don?t mind)
    [x3]

    If you don't mind
    The color is all but faded
    Out of a dead man's eyes
    Down to his blackened heart
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

    (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Writer/s: Chester C Bennington, Dean DeLeo, Eric Kretz, Robert Emile DeLeo
