Brendan Smith - Black & White Lyrics

Prisons, seal your doors and mansions, lock your gates
The devil's in the courtyard, and he shall not be named
He's on his own
And this time, there's no route home

I've taken all my pride and locked it in with him
Now, I can feel a tingling creeping up my skin
I'm full of life
I'm shaking off my darkest night
And all the colors of his fickle lies are
Fading 'til their black and white

Well, three cheers for righteousness and three for negligence
You roll them all together and you
Catch a glimpse of what's trapped beneath your skin
The devil takes the reins again
And even he, the kind of lies, can tell you're out of breath, my friend

I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I have been the cure and I have been the perpetrator
I will be the cure. Time's up for the perpetrator in me
I will be the cure. Time's up for the perpetrator
I will be the cure. Time's up for the perpetrator in me
