[Intro: Brian Burkheiser]

I'm so sick and tired of the negative


[Verse 1: Brian Burkheiser]

I’m on the edge tonight

Closer to the ledge, you were right

Lost in my head tonight

Lost in my head tonight

I'm spinning in circles and I can't get out

Running from these thoughts that I can’t say out loud


[Verse 2: Eric Vanlerberghe]

Well, damn, I guess you're the perfect person

Same day but a different version

Paint the picture but you don't deserve it

Color's fading underneath the surface

So wear black everywhеre you go

No take backs at the еnd of the road

No last chance when the casket's closed

Your silence is worth more than gold


[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]

I'm so sick and tired of the negative

Black and white, you're right

I'm fucking over it

Patience is paper thin

And something’s gotta give

I’m so sick and tired of the negative


[Bridge: Eric Vanlerberghe]

Time is running out

It's inescapable

Staring at the walls

Feel like an animal

You can’t escape

You can't escape

You think I'm locked in here with you

You're here with me

And no one leaves

Time is running out

It’s inescapable


[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]

I'm so sick and tired of the negative

Black and white, you're right

I'm fucking over it

Patience is paper thin

And something's gotta give

I'm so sick and tired of the negative

'Cause all my life I never knew

Why my mind is turning black, turning blue

But now I know

That colors don't bleed the same between me and you


[Breakdown: Eric Vanlerberghe]

I've watched the whole world go insane

They convinced me I'm addicted to the pain

I need it

Like a moth drawn to a flame

We're too fucked up to be saved

So go insane

Like a moth drawn to a flame

We're too fucked up to be saved


[Outro: Brian Burkheiser]

I'm so sick and tired of the negative

Black and white, you're right

I'm fucking over it
