(Begins with percussion only) See myself in black and white It isn't done, it isn't right See it there before my eyes It's a sorry song, a sorry sight You sunk your teeth, you're in me deep I couldn't sing, I couldn't sleep Beat your chest with both your hands For all I was, for all I am, all I am Aaah Then all my thoughts solidify To sudden diamonds in my mind I lit the fuse so run and hide So honey sweet and shoulda known, shoulda known Aaah Black and white, it isn't right To hold me down and bleed me dry Cut the ties that keep me up at night Or make me see myself in black and white Well I can bite my lips, I can chew my hair But I'm still stone heavy and unprepared Like an empty chair I was always there Aaah Well I can bite my lips, I can chew my hair But I'm still stone heavy and unprepared Like an empty chair I was always there Aaah Black and white, it isn't right To hold me down and bleed me dry Cut the ties that keep me up at night Or make me see myself in black and white
