black & white

How did we get here
And why did we stay
I'm so tired of being black and white
I can't escape it
It won't go away
I'm so tired of being black and white

Holding me hostage in my own body
Why won't it leave me alone?
What demons are these, and why did they chose me?
Why can't they let me go?
One hundred pills but nothing can fix it
The damage is already done
Ten thousand emotions but I feel nothing
I don't wanna say it won

How did we get here
And why did we stay
I'm so tired of being black and white
I can't escape it
It won't go away
I'm so tired of being black and white
But if I'm gonna remain like this
At least give me strength
I look back on all my regrets
And now I gotta pay

Punching the hole in my heart even deeper
But then stitching it up
Good and evil but it won't chose either
Don't know what is to come
All of these years and it doesn't get tired
Tired of it's own game
Waking at dawn with no sight of the future
Why am I so afraid?

How did we get here
And why did we stay
I'm so tired of being black and white
I can't escape it
It won't go away
I'm so tired of being black and white
But if I'm gonna remain like this
At least give me strength
I look back on all my regrets
And now I gotta pay

I swing like hypnosis
Watching myself go back and forth
I look into the doomsday clock
And wonder what am I waiting for
I sleep till necrosis
Watching the sand fall through the floor
I flip the hourglass and lock
Myself away beyond the door

How did we get here
And why did we stay
I'm so tired of being black and white
I can't escape it
It won't go away
I'm so tired of being black and white
But if I'm gonna remain like this
At least give me strength
I look back on all my regrets
And now I gotta pay
