Lyrics

I can see my shadow
Playing on the wall
Acting like some big guy
Who’s just scared of looking small
It isn’t that I’m crazy
It isn’t about me
It’s just that what you’re looking at
Isn’t what you see
But you don’t want to hear me
It’s black and white you said
You don’t understand
All the colours in my head
You don’t understand me
A brick is not a bread
And sometimes being young
Is worse than being dead
I guess I must be feeling
A joke short of a smile
Exercising ego
When I’m pleading self-denial
But often making choices
Isn’t all that great
When you want to learn to love
And you’ve got to learn to hate
But you don’t want to hear me
It’s black and white you said
You don’t understand
All the colours in my head
You don’t understand me
A brick is not a bread
And sometimes being me
Is worse than being dead
Paper cups and cola
China mugs and tea
Static on the radio
And nothing on tv
Faking my reflection
Is easier to do
Than staring at a stranger
And recognising
You
