The Staves - Black & White lyrics

rate me

See myself in black and white

It isn’t done, it isn’t right

See you there before my eyes

It’s a sorry song

A sorry sight

You sunk your teeth, your remedy

I couldn’t sing,

I couldn’t sleep

Beat your chest with both your hands

For all it was

For all I had, all I had

And all my thoughts are verified

To se diamonds in the nights

I let the few still running high

It’s a honey sweet and sugar crunch

Black and white it isn’t right to hold me down

And make me try

Cut the tights and keep me off the night

You make me see myself in black and white

I can bite my lips

I can chew my hands

And I’m still stuck here unprepared

Like an empty chair

I was always there

I can bite my lips

I can chew my hands

And I’m still stuck here unprepared

Like an empty chair

I was always there

Black and white it isn’t right to hold me down

And make me try

Cut the tights and keep me off the night

You make me see myself in black and white
