O.A.R. - Black Rock (Live) lyric
Ringtone: Send Black Rock (Live) Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
On the black rock is where i spend my time
writing a memory or writing a rhyme
thinking about what is right or wrong
On the black rock is where i like to go
After a long night comin home from our show
thats where i write my song all day long
the black rock (maryland, that is)
Sometimes, i just look around
taking the feeling coming out from the ground
thats just something i do sometimes
and then i just come out the door
taking the wind coming off of the shore
and thats just what im doing tonight
On the black rock is where i spend my time
writing a memory or writing a rhyme
thinking about what is right or wrong
On the black rock is where i like to go
After a long night comin home from the show
thats where i write my song all day long
the black rock, yeah, yeah, yeah
When you are on your own
not speaking out is like fighting alone
and that is the worst damn way to fight
and when you are scared no more
you reach your hand out and just open my door
and thats just what we're doing tonight, yeah!
On the black rock is where i spend my time
writing a memory or writing a rhyme
thinking about what is right or wrong
On the black rock is where i like to go
After a long night comin home from MY show
thats where i write my song all day long
the black rock
About one, maybe two, three, four, five, years ago
when i lived my days full of confusion, as you know
This comes and goes, but it leaves me upset all the time
Oh how i was ready to do anything that was wrong
And i was looking for an answer to just one of these questions here
So i went to this riverside to find my head so clear
And i saw this old man sitting on a big black rock
I said "what's your name?"
He said "i'm old man time and my son,
well i've been waiting for you for long.
you see that i can see your vapors that are growing in you strong.
and i can see that you are hurt
and i can see that you are so vain
but you must listen to this thing i say
and live to it all again
you must lose that anger
lose all that hate, it ain't gonna work no more
i said this world is run by love and absolutely nothing more."
So i laid down all my pain, and i got rid of my hate
And i'd love to get away
And the black rock is where i'll stay
We all have a black rock, its in our minds
And i go there all the time
Its the black rock
