Black & White - Sarah McLachlan

Unravel me
a distant cord
on the outside is forgotten
a constant need
to get along
and the animal awakens
and all I feel is black and white


The road is long
the memory slides
to the whole of my undoing
put aside
I put away
I push it back to get through each day
and all I feel is black and white
and I'm wound up small and tight
and I don't know who I am


Everybody loves you when you're easy
everybody hates when you're a bore
everyone is waiting for your entrance so
don't disappoint them


Unravel me
untie this chord
the very centre of our union
is caving in
I can't endure
I am the archive of our failure


And all I feel is black and white
and I'm wound up small and tight
and I don't know who I am


Everybody loves you when you're easy
everybody hates when you're a bore
everyone is waiting for your entrance
so don't disappoint them


Everybody loves you when you're easy so don't disappoint them


Don't disappoint them.
