Lyrics
Backstab
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some say that we dream in black & white, but I think otherwise.
Look at all of these bullets that I bite, you need to be cut downto size.
What is it that you say?
(What is it that you say?)
What is it that you say?
(What is it that you say?)
I should never have gotten that close.
That small gray area is all I know
And it's alright.
Well, I will just wash out my eyes.
And it's alright.
And we will see who it is that cries.
You want me to understand, how a friendship's supposed to end.
Take a ruler and just slap my hand, is that the message that yousend?
What is it that you say?
(What is it that you say?)
What is it that you say?
(What is it that you say)
Well I'll be here
(What is that you say?)
I won't be there.
(What is that you say?)
I will be here. I won't be...
(What is it that you say?)
I should have never gotten that close.
That small gray area is all I know.
And it's alright.
Well, I will just wash out my eyes.
And it's alright.
And we will see who it is that cries.
When I find out who you really are.
