Leave while you still see black and white The daffodils will not wait Leave while snowmen writhe under rain Or the petals will disintegrate

The longer you stay, the more attached you'll grow The grey will show And you'll learn to love them beyond their flaws. They'll be a good person, with bad decisions And that's the worst.

They'll love you, but ask you to touch more. They'll hate you, hit you, and once the black and white is gone You'll come back for more.

There's no end to this unless you're the one to stop it. No outsider helps here, you're the one to leave it. You're the one, who's trying their best You're the only one they'll listen to Or won't, based on testimonials delivered with emotions or apathy

Or maybe they'll listen But not believe So you need to leave Before the black and white turns grey Before the daffodils that waited too long for you Turn to dust.
