I can feel you breathing down my neck
Pushing on these walls
As I watch them caving in on me
I find it hard to believe that
The things that bring me down
Would be the things that I had built myself
I know you're looking with that rusted crown
Hold yourself so high above me
You can't see the bitter heart you gave me
Everything that you see in me is black and white
Black and white
Everything that I try to be is black and white
Black and white
Try to wipe the page, let the colors run
In the end I'm the only one that sees
Not everything is black and white
Black and white
I'm so sorry that I never fit your mold
Your hands grew cold as you lose your grip on me
No time for apologies, as I say
I never thought the things that bring me down
Would be the things that I had built myself
I know you're looking down with that rusted crown
With yourself so high above me
You can't see the bitter heart you gave me
Everything that you see in me is black and white
Black and white
Everything that I try to be is black and white
Black and white
Try to wipe the page, let the colors run
In the end I'm the only one that sees
Not everything is black and white
Black and white
Not everything is black and white
It's not that simple cause it never is
You bury all your tracks and you tamper with the evidence
And to think I use to trust you and love it's taking all of me
So, to all to my fake friends I'd like to offer this apology
I'm sorry I never listened when you told me I was nothing
Thought you might be right but had a feeling that you wasn't
I won't stoop to your level cause I'm just so far above it
Put your heart into the lie so I know better than to trust it
Everything that you see in me is black and white
Black and white
Everything that I try to be is black and white
Black and white
Try to wipe the page, let the colors run
In the end I'm the only one that sees
Not everything is black and white
Black and white
