Black Dog (song)

Black Dog is a song performed by the band Samurai.

Background
Recorded before the band's breakup in 2008, only two copies survived the Fourth Corporate War, one being a "crappy pirate datalink" made up of poor quality studio session recordings, and the other being a full recording of the song from the original studio session. The second was discovered by a group of 7 in 2045.

Lyrics

 * a blind man lost, in the streets
 * a pattern here, I need to see
 * keep returning keep trying to leave
 * got a bad feeling that I need to feel
 * black dog runs at my side
 * down a road, no end in sight
 * the city sleeps but in my mind
 * got a knot that won't unwind


 * tonight is the night that we run
 * the hunter becomes what he hunts
 * the escape and the chase become one
 * run run
 * tonight is the night that we run
 * the hunter becomes what he hunts
 * the escape and the chase become one
 * run run


 * in concrete canyons squinting neon eyes
 * black dog beside me, like shadow needing light
 * stalk the backstreets, never at ease
 * locked in a chase that'll never cease
 * a bloody moon, portending doom
 * another cruel day is coming soon
 * have to end this but it's just begun
 * a ﬁnal charge, with the rising sun


 * black dog in my head
 * guiding me to the end
 * black dog in my head
 * guiding me to the end
 * black dog in my head
 * guiding me to the end
 * black dog in my head


 * in concrete canyons squinting neon eyes
 * black dog beside me, like shadow needing light
 * stalk the backstreets, never at ease
 * locked in a chase that'll never cease
 * a bloody moon, portending doom
 * another cruel day, coming soon
 * have to end this but it's just begun
 * a ﬁnal charge, with the rising sun


 * tonight is the night that we run
 * the hunter becomes what he hunts
 * the escape and the chase become one
 * run run
 * tonight is the night that we run
 * the hunter becomes what he hunts
 * the escape and the chase become one
 * run run
