[Verse 1]
She walks away
Colors fade to gray
Every precious moment's now a waste
She hits the gas hoping it would pass
But the red light starts to flash
It's time to wait

[Chorus]
And black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew, no
A world I never knew

[Verse 2]
She hates the sun 'cause it proves she's not alone
And the world doesn't revolve around her soul, no
But she loves the sky 'cause it validates her pride
Never lets her know when she is wrong

[Chorus]
And black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew, no
Yeah, when the walls start closing in
Don't let 'em get inside of your head
Don't let 'em get inside of your head
Don't let 'em get inside of your head
Don't let them inside
[Chorus]
'Cause the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull, oh
And the lights out never had this bright a glow
And the black keys
Are showing me a world I never knew, no

[Outro]
Don't let 'em get (Don't let 'em get)
Inside of your head (No)
Don't let 'em get inside of your head
Don't let 'em get (Don't let 'em get)
Inside of your head
Don't let 'em get (No)
Inside of your head
Sometimes, you'll find it's better black and white
