Black and White Never Looked So Beautiful

I tickle the pages As I turn trough the ages And i find things i didn't want there I find regrets and heartache What more could it take For me to understand that life isn't fair I find old faded photos of the places i've been and the places i long to forget But life isn't meant To be like this A photo album full of despair but still all i can do is stare I'd tear out the pages And crumple them up If i thought that it'd do any good I've tried it before But they always return Torn and tattered but they are still there I tire of old fade photos Of the people i've met And of the ones i just can't forget But life isn't meant To be like this A photo album full of despair It's meant to be closer To bright colored photos That leave a feeling of hope in the air Instead of the dust thats now there... And i know it's my fault I'm the one who decided to look And i know it's my fault I'm the one who created this book And i know it's my fault i know it's all my fault... but life isn't meant to be like this a photo album full of despair.
