She walks away
Colors fade to grey
Every precious moment's now a waste

She hits the gas
Hoping it would pass
The red light starts to flash
It's time to wait

And the black keys
Never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow
Never seemed so dull
And the light's out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew, no
World I never knew

She hates the sun
'Cause it proves she's not alone
And the world doesn't
Revolve around her soul, no

She loves the sky
'Cause it validates her pride
Never lets her know when she is wrong

And the black keys
Never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow
Never seemed so dull
And the light's out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew, no
Yeah

And the walls are closing in
Don't let 'em get
Inside of your head
Don't let 'em get
Inside of your head
Don't let 'em get
Inside of your head
Don't let them inside

'Cause the black keys
Never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow
Never seemed so dull, oh
And the light's out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew

Don't let 'em get
(Don't let 'em get)
Inside of your head, no
Don't let 'em get
Inside of your head
Don't let 'em get
(Don't let 'em get)
Inside of your head
Don't let 'em get, no
Inside of your head

Sometimes you find
It's better black and white
