In Black And White

I'm a doorman at my death row,
you faceless foe of heart.
An accent, a drop of darkest blood on snow,
white feather in the tar.

A tearstain on your frozen face!
A life in black and white.

You slaughtered my soul again,
tried my best to be worth your two realities.
You're breaking my heart again,
to squeeze out a rhyme, I bid you farewell.

Stupidity, ignorance,
leave a light on for the blind.

Now I will hit you where it hurts.
Take what is rightfully mine,
I need a sign that you're worth fighting for.
Winning or losing alone, I am only a pawn.

I'm tired of pleasing you!
Discolored this emptiness,
wrapped in a scheme

I delayed my dreams to see.
Who blinded your eyes,
from things that are real?

For me, I believe in the taste of bitter sweet.
Dying fountains full of stories untold.

After a history of losses,
attained the victory where it occurred.
Lips so cold, the final testing ground,
for beautiful words.

Diving in the seas of sin,
without knowing where lies the bottom.
Idle moments spawned you idle people,
no morality, no soul.

Sabotage or a fatal mistake?
Scandal born, a new race!
Unauthorized use, not stealing?
We've no rights, just passion and rage.

People you know on your side, touching concern.
Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn.
Take a bow and take the blame,
soon you'll wake up screaming your nightmare's name.

Now I will hit you where it hurts.
Take what is rightfully mine,
I need a sign that you're worth fighting for.
Winning or losing alone, I am only a pawn.

People you know on your side, touching concern.
Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn.
Always a minute too late, now feel the burn.
Wake up friend, you're screaming the name of the...

Doorman at my death row,
you faceless foe of heart.
An accent, a drop of darkest blood on snow,
white feather in the tar.

A tearstain on my frozen face,
follow the wicked trail.
If you wish you see the sum,
of all my fears in many shades of gray.

You'll see your dreams in black and white.
Nightmares in black and white.
Sweet dreams in black and white.
Your life is black and white.
