original song lyrics

Black and White

I'm singing this song,

Just for you.

To tell you what is wrong,

And what I still do.

You ask me if I'm okay,

And I tell you I'm fine.

Then you walk away,

Believing that white lie.

They tell me I'm gonna be alright,

They all think that it's black and white.

But I'm still painting with this silver brush that I have,

Then I pick it up and the line turns red.

I've got all these scars,

From my father going out to bars.

But I've got so many more on my mind,

That you will never find.

To all the people who lied,

Told me I should have died.

Told me no one would love me,

Even if I tried.

I'm sorry to say,

But you won't get a reaction out of me today.
