I play on the black keys |
|
where i dont have to worry much |
|
its already hard enough |
|
to sing a song about this |
|
some people try the white keys |
|
but the thinkin' hurts my head |
|
so i move back here instead |
|
it comes easier |
|
|
|
you know why |
|
you're the one whos on the greivin' end |
|
and just wave goodbye |
|
and wonder if you'll ever breathe again |
|
thats why |
|
|
|
i play on the black keys |
|
when it already takes my best |
|
to pretend that this big mess |
|
isn't happenin' |
|
i play on the black keys |
|
so i can close my eyes |
|
try to picture you beside me |
|
singin harmonies |
|
and you know why |
|
one day i will try and explain it all |
|
and if you dont mind |
|
id like some time to try and play it all |
|
|
|
if i ever thought it would come to this |
|
the needin' and the bleedin' |
|
then i woulda tried to say it better better |
|
if i ever thought i cherished you |
|
and i mean it yeah i mean it |
|
now i still think youre here |
|
you're pullin in you're pullin in |
|
but you wouldn't know why |
|
because you're the one the one whos on the leavin' end |
|
then you wave goodbye |
|
when you saw me cry would you believe me then |
|
|
|
thats why...i...i...i... |
|
and i...i...i... |
|
yeah...i...i...i... |
|
|
|
i play on the black keys...yeah |
