Lyrics:

Sparkle & Fade Rendition

Time stops
When the whispers blare
The voices drop hard
But the eyes still stare
The world resolves
Into a death head grin
Because I walk with pride
With a black girlfriend

My mom
Said not to bring her around
‘Cause she's black
My family would put her down

I'll break
The white trash ties that bind
Trade a love so pure
For a hate so blind

She said
She said
Forget the fact
That I don't look like you
She said
She said
You're possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain

Time stops when we lie so close
In my room where we share
What no one knows

From the day that we start
Until the day that we end
I know I know I know now
We will never find a place
Where we could just fit in

Me and my black girlfriend
Whoa

She said
She said
Fend for yourself
You're alone

She said
She said
You are possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain

A power bigger than the pain (2x)
Heartspark Dollarsign (2x)

Colorfinger Rendition

She said
She said
You’re possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain

Time stops
When the whispers blare
The voices drop hard
But the eyes still stare
The world resolves
Into a death head grin
Because I walk with pride
With a black girlfriend

My mom
Said not to bring her around
‘Cause she's black
My family would put her down

I'll break
The white trash ties that bind
Trade a love so pure
For a hate so blind

She said
She said
Forget the fact
That I don't look like you
She said
She said
You're possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain

Time stops when we lie so close
In my room where we share
What no one knows

From the day that we start
Until the day that we end
I know I know I know now
We will never find a place
Where we could just fit in

Me and my black girlfriend
Whoa

She said
She said
Fend for yourself
You're alone

She said
She said
You are possessed with a power
Bigger than the pain

A power bigger than the pain (2x)
Heartspark Dollarsign (2x)

Shakinbrave Rendition
He says
He says
Forget the fact that I am leaving

He says
He says
That you’re possessed with a power bigger than the pain

I smile at the sound of a little man screaming
I wonder if the folks outside know he’s singing
Where’d all my friends run off to?
Where’s my sounding board?
Like a long drive
In a big white car
So far away where from home

He says
He says
You’re possessed that I’m leaving

He says
He says
That you’re possessed with a power bigger than the pain

Yeah
Yeah

There’s a power bigger than the pain
Living alone with your past mistakes
There’s a gutter better than the gain
My Heartspark dollarsign
My Heartspark dollarsign

He says
He says
Forget the fact that I am leaving you

He says
Yeah, he says
That you’re possessed with a power bigger than the pain
A power bigger than the pain
A power bigger than the pain
