lyrics

To whom it may concern
I cannot discern
Any of the light at the end of the night
Technicolor friends are now black and white

My heart is T.N.T. with invisible debris
I'm flammable but swim in gasoline
Always hidden behind my smokescreen

I use all my money gambling
And I find myself at home scrambling
For loose change but it just disappears
I can't believe I've wasted all these years

A black and blue morale bullied by rationale
Flames extinguished won't burn again
My fragile wrist is sick of seeing my pen

Your hearts are weary eyes
Sick of seeing the same disguise
I'm covered in dark clouds but can't show the sunshine
Kindness can't help but disentwine

I use all my money gambling
And I find myself at home scrambling
For loose change but it just disappears
I can't believe I've wasted all these years
