Even though they say it'll be fine

It's hard to know

Which feels stay and which will go

So I hide myself with a shield

One made of tunes

Warding off the things I do

'Cuz every night, I pick a fight

And find myself against the knife

That knows just how to cut me all too well

But still I try to make it right

When everything's in black and white

'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell

If I'm caving in

I failed to make a decent alibi

To explain Why I never made a name

It's because it gets way too clear

I'm just scared

Of never getting down these stairs

'Cuz every night, I pick a fight

And find myself against the knife

That knows just how to cut me all too well

But still I try to make it right

When everything's in black and white

'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell

If I'm caving in If I'm caving in

I wanna feel special When I'm with you

Why don't I feel special

What can I do to fix all these feelings

I wanna feel special

But it's no use

This mirror's not special

Won't let me choose the things that I'm seeing, oh

'Cuz every night, I pick a fight

And find myself against the knife

That knows just how to cut me all too

But still I try to make it right

When everything's in black and white

'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to

'Cuz every night, I pick a fight

And find myself against the knife

That knows just how to cut me all too

But still I try to make it right

When everything's in black and white

'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell

If I'm caving in
