I wrote it out in black and white
I spelt it out in neon lights
I was telling you day and night
You never listened to my advice
You scream and shout and kick against the door
You never knew what talking was for
You throw your fists and punch your friends
Up on the ceiling, then down on the floor
I wrote it out in black and white
I spelt it out in neon lights
I was telling you day and night
You never listened to my advice
You live in fear, haunted by all your crimes
You always deflect and rearrange
Don't see the hurt caused by all your lies
And you will never take the blame
Oh! If you could only see the truth
You ignored the warning shot
Now the world is aiming at you
What you had coming is what you've got
It ends in darkness, the violence and the fights
The abuse turns inward like a knife
You did not stop when the bullets went flying by
The next will surely end your life
I wrote it out in black and white
I spelt it out in neon lights
I was telling you day and night
You never listened to my advice
