Analysis of Some Say Black
Some say black is goth,
Some say it's emo.
But you know, really
It's the darkest, most beautiful shade of night.
The cape of the stars.
It's the lone wolf's friend
It's the color of your eyes.
It's the beauty of it,
Not the meaning.
Don't you see the color black
Is more than some say it is?
