Black and White

[toxinate]

There's only so much I could forget now,
Now that I've dug this scar so deep.
Wounds heal with time, leaving clues of the left behind
Only now do I realize what I've done doesn't last.
Your face is now embedded in my skin,
Your face is now burned in my eyes.

I took on the world with my beliefs,
Stood strong, held fast as quickly as time passed
I knew what I had and what I could give,
Foolishly thinking that somebody cared.
And now your soul is what stood out,
and now your love is what dissolved.

If I could take it all back I wouldn't;
The pain of the fall was too great,
But I've learned the hard way
And still believe what I believe.
And now all I want is you,
And now all I need is your love.

Call me what you want, call me what you will
Just know that I'm still here for you.
Unfortunately, I was misrepresented
And unfortunately, I was killed.
But I was reborn,
and I did it for you.

And now I'm back to what I was,
And now I gain from what I lack.
Now, I wish I was a radio song that YOU turned up,
Now that I've killed my ego for you.

Now I question myself if I should post this,
putting myself under the blade...
And now I figure what more can I lose.
