Dressed In Black Lyrics - 1000 Forms Of Fear - Sia

I had given up 

I didn't know who to trust 

So I designed a shell 

Kept me from Heaven and Hell 

And I had hit a low 

Was all I let myself know 

Yeah I had locked my heart 

I was imprisoned by dark 

You found me dressed in black 

Hiding way up at the back 

Life had broken my heart into pieces 

You took my hand in yours 

You started breaking down my walls 

And you covered my heart in kisses 

I thought life passed me by 

Missed my tears, ignored my cries 

Life had broken my heart, my spirit 

And then you crossed my path 

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh

Then you covered my heart in kisses 

I was down for the count 

I was down, I was out 

And I had lost it all 

Yes I was scared, I was torn 

I took to the night 

I'd given in to the fight 

And I slipped further down 

I felt like I had drowned 

You found me dressed in black 

Hiding way up at the back 

Life had broken my heart into pieces 

You took my hand in yours 

You started breaking down my walls 

And you covered my heart in kisses 

I thought life passed me by 

Missed my tears, ignored my cries 

Life had broken my heart, my spirit

And then you crossed my path 

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh 

Then you covered my heart in kisses 

I was hopeless and broken 

You opened the door for me 

Yeah I was hiding and you let the light in 

And now I see 

That you do for the wounded 

What they couldn't seem to 

You set them free 

Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the minor key 

You found me dressed in black 

Hiding way up at the back 

Life had broken my heart into pieces 

You took my hand in yours 

You started breaking down my walls 

And you covered my heart in kisses 

I thought life passed me by 

Missed my tears, ignored my cries 

Life had broken my heart, my spirit 

And then you crossed my path 

You quelled my fears, you made me laugh 

Then you covered my heart in kisses 

... 

And covered my heart in kisses
