In Black And White - Sonata Arctica

作词：Tony Kakko

作曲：Tony Kakko

I'm a doorman at my death row you faceless foe of heart

An accent a drop of darkest blood on snow

White feather in the tar

A tearstream on your frozen face

A life - in black and white

You slaughtered my soul again

Tried my best to be worth your two realities

You're breaking my heart again

To squeeze out a rhyme i bid you farewell

Stupidity ignorance leave a light on for the blind

Now i will hit you where it hurts

Take what is rightfully mine i need a sign

That you're worth fighting for

Winning or losing alone

I am only a pawn

I'm tired of pleasing you

Discoloured this emptiness wrapped in a scheme

I delayed my dreams to see

Who blinded your eyes from things that are real

For me i believe in the taste of bitter sweet

Dying fountains full of stories untold

After a history of losses attained

The victory where it occured

Lips so cold the final testing ground for beautiful words

Dying in the seas of sin

Without knowing where lies the bottom

Idle moments spawned you idle people no morality no soul

Sabatoge or a fatal mistake

Scandal born new race

Unauthorised use not stealing

We've no rights just passion and rage

People you know on your side touching concern

Stand on a chair and scream as tables turn

Take a bow take the blame soon you'll wake up screaming

Your nightmare's name

Now i will hit you where it hurts

Take what is rightfully mine i need a sign

That you're worth fighting for

Winning and losing alone

I am only a pawn

a pawn

People you know on your side touching concern

Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn

Always a minute too late now feel the burn

Wake up friend you're screaming the name of the

Doorman on my death row you faceless foe of the heart

An accent a drop of darkest blood on snow

White feather in the tar

Tearstains on my frozen face follow the wicked trail if you

Wish you see the sum of all my fears in many shades of grey

You'll see

Your dreams in black and white

Nightmares in black and white

Sweet dreams in black and white

Your life is black and white
