Will Durie - Black And White Lyrics

Open your eyes
Behind your lids you're seeing cold days, long nights
Not worth reliving all the bad things you've tried
This doesn't make 'em any better
Between the lines
I've tried to stay, but everyone knows
Sometimes there's blurry lanes and if you must go outside
Once in a while then what's the matter?
In black and white I see it
But I still don't believe it
She acts just like she rules
Over everything she sees
Reserves her special treatment
I shouldn't have got my feet wet
Thought I was king didn't have a clue
Was just a pawn moved by the queen
Cuz up in her tower she lies
Thinkin' that I'm so blind
Telling me I'm her guy
Wasting my time
But it's so black and white
That you were never mine
Idols and busts
Line the pathways to the places she trusts
But there's so many, is there nothing discussed
With her that won't be shared with others?
Heroes and fools
There is no in between when jealousy rules
It's never what it seems, you win or you lose
But neither nor ever recovers
It was so hard to see it
Man, I still don't believe it
She thought that she could do
Anything she pleased
A crown comprised of secrets
Words of others' regrets
And I was wrong to have assumed
Mine would be kept safe with the queen
Cuz up in her tower she lies
Thinkin that I'm so blind
Telling me I'm her guy, wasting my time
But it's so black and white
That you were never mine
No you were never mine
She sits confined
A little space, it's her own prison, her mind
But she would never ever go back in time
This is exactly what she wanted
