Tekst piosenki
When you’ve seen what I’ve seen
And you see what I do
If you wanna stay the night
I’m cool
But don’t repeat what you heard in the morning
Cos I’m prone to these vivid dreams
Sleep alone blasting my TV
And I give myself away
Sober, high, there’s no escape
I’ll tell you no lies
Here’s a secret you must keep
Behind my disguise
Is a black girl losing sleep
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when there’s no one around
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when another one of me hits the ground
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when there’s no one around
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when another one of me hits the ground
Access denied, a sister forced into submission
Guilt kissed the mind and now you’re too ashamed to listen
Sing a song of fiction and secrets always kept
Sang a song for a Saartjie, for Sandra and I wept
Heartache always faithful when lies are sold as truth
Sing for the coloured girl whose pain comes in red, white and blue
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when there’s no one around
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when another one of me hits the ground
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when there’s no one around
These are my black girl tears
And I shed em when another one of me hits the ground
