Black/White

**[Intro] [Melancholic Piano]**

Asphalt, cold as ice, beneath my shoes

Nights long, just smoke rising to the sky, yeah

Lights are blinking, the city never sleeps, I’m awake

Wondering again, once more, what did I do wrong?

**[Verse 1] [Emotional Flow] [Deep Bass]**

All that glitters is gold, but my heart is black and white

Shining bright on the outside, but so quiet inside

I’ve achieved everything I wanted, or so I thought

The emptiness screams so loud, almost choking me.

**[Pre-Chorus] [Painful] [Reverb]**

I hit play, repeat the old mistakes

The scars never heal, they just get deeper

Pour me another drink, maybe it’ll get easier

But the mirror doesn’t lie, shows me my true face, yeah.

**[Chorus] [Emotional Climax] [Piano]**

I don’t know how to be happy, no, I don’t know

I’m trapped in a cycle, see no light

Looking for a way out of the labyrinth, but I never find it

Maybe happiness is just an illusion for people like me.

**[Verse 2] [Regretful Flow] [Strings]**

Driving the Benz through the night, windows all down

The bass pumps, numbs me briefly, for just a few seconds

I see faces passing by, all so happy

I wonder if they really are, or are they just pretending?

**[Pre-Chorus] [Painful] [Reverb]**

I hit play, repeat the old mistakes

The scars never heal, they just get deeper

Pour me another drink, maybe it’ll get easier

But the mirror doesn’t lie, shows me my true face, yeah.

**[Chorus] [Emotional Climax] [Piano]**

I don’t know how to be happy, no, I don’t know

I’m trapped in a cycle, see no light

Looking for a way out of the labyrinth, but I never find it

Maybe happiness is just an illusion for people like me.

**[Bridge] [Haunting] [Echoes]**

Maybe it’s not outside, maybe it’s deep inside me

I have to accept the fight and defeat the darkness here

Somewhere out there, there must be a way for me

To rediscover the colors and start living again.

**[Chorus] [Emotional Climax] [Piano]**

I don’t know how to be happy, no, I don’t know

I’m trapped in a cycle, see no light

Looking for a way out of the labyrinth, but I never find it

Maybe happiness is just an illusion for people like me.

**[Outro] [Soft] [Fading]**

Black… White… I don’t know…

Black… White… Someday… maybe…
