All the things you think I need
All I wear upon my sleeve
All the ways that you perceive
I no longer need it
I know what it means
In black and white
God wanted me
And that's why...
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
Just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
And me
I just take things as they come
I stick around until it's done
And I'm not your chosen one
But can you admit it?
I know what it means
In black and white
God wanted me
And that's why...
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
Just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
(Solo)
You can take
All the things you think I need
All the ways that you
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
I just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
I know what it means!
In black and white
I know what it means!
You can take All the things you think I need All I wear upon my sleeve All the ways that you perceive I no longer need it I know what it means In black and white God wanted me And that's why... You leave me on the edge of sanity There's not much left Just take a breath You paint me out as mediocrity Put to the test Just take a breath And me I just take things as they come I stick around until it's done And I'm not your chosen one But can you admit it? I know what it means In black and white God wanted me And that's why... You leave me on the edge of sanity There's not much left Just take a breath You paint me out as mediocrity Put to the test Just take a breath (Solo) You can take All the things you think I need All the ways that you You leave me on the edge of sanity There's not much left I just take a breath You paint me out as mediocrity Put to the test Just take a breath I know what it means! In black and white I know what it means! Explain Request ×
