My Life in Black and White

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   Apr 9, 2006


And it stopped
And nothing's funny anymore
And it stopped
And nothing's worth caring for Anymore
And it ceased
And all my feelings were released
Hallow inside
Nothing to hide
Because there's nothing within
Oh where do I begin
When it ended
I was stunned
My emotions were in shock
I let the thought seep in
Oh where do I begin
There was pain
For quite a while
But then it left
And took everything with it
I don't smile
I don't care
I think nothing of all the glances
And the stares
When it stopped
Nothing mattered anymore
The world became black and white
And life was just a bore
Oh nothing matters anymore
Why did you stop
What was so good
Why did you wash away all the
Colors
Why did my emotions leave
Happiness is no longer in my Vocabulary
What does it mean
To feel
What does it feel like
To laugh
I don't remember
How to love
And I can't figure out
How to get mad
Why am I sad
But feel no pain
Why are my thoughts
Completely careless
I hope that you're aware
What you've done to me does
Scare
The people passing by
I don't even stop and ask for the
Time
I think they remember me
How I use to be
I use to laugh
I use to sing
To dance in the streets
To love everything
I stopped to chat with anyone
I stopped to talk with everyone
The world had it's problems
But I didn't have mine
Just a carefree person
Wasting my time
Why did it stop
Why did it end
Where do I start
Where do I begin
First
Stunned
And then
Pain
And now my emotions have run
Down the drain
Nothing matters anymore
Laughter seems to have ceased
In this black and white world I live In
What happened to my happy face
Why do I look different yet the
Same
I am the same
I look the same
But something is different
The colors all seem faded
I feel like I'm in a black and white
Movie
The colors are missing and the
Sound goes in and out
No more happy people running
About
Those people use to be you and I
Why did our love have to die
I don't think I can love again
I don't think I can even make a
Friend
I think I'll just keep walking on
Letting the people wonder on
Left foot
Right foot
Left foot
Right foot
Don't pay attention to anything else
I'm just another person now
Just a black and white shadow
In the endless crowd
Things will end
And things will start
But why did you have to tear us
Apart
I don't know what to do anymore
I've lost my touch
The joyful laughter
Nothing fun to chase after
I'll kick the stone in front of me
I'll ignore everybody
No one knows what has happened
To me
Oh what has happened to me
You took my heart
And I took yours
But with my love
You've seemed to have gotten
Bored
Well nothing matters anymore
I'll continue to walk the streets
I'll receive puzzled looks from
Strangers
And I'll walk with my head down
And one foot in front of the other
Life will go on
And so will I
I'll grow old and then I'll die
Some people will recognize me
As I lay in my coffin
And they'll remember
The lifeless thing I was
And wonder what happened
To that happy girl and who she was
Where to begin
Oh where to begin
Why did our love have to come to An
End
