You used to run and laugh and care.
You are nothing but an outline now.
A hollow voice with an edge of despair.
You are nothing but an outline now.
We reach our hands out to hug,
You break them with your callus words.
You are nothing but an outline now.
You live your world in black and black.
A single shade unerring.
You are nothing but an outline now.
So many colors in the box,
You can only find the one.
You are nothing but an outline now.
Ah, but you dream in vivid color.
Reds and greens and blues.
You are nothing but an outline now.
Worshiping white in your wildest dreams,
Sacrifieced by day at the altar of black.
You are nothing but an outline now.
You are nothing but an outline now.
You are nothing but an outline now.
You are nothing but an outline now.

This reads better and I can really feel the force of two people in it,
"So many colors in the box,
You can only find the one."
does work better but I think it lost some of the heart of outline

Yeah, this is much much better. It doesn't look forced even though I can mostly remember the first one. Still flows nicely and I liked it overall. |

Callous or do you really mean callus.(line 6)
Nice use of repetition to show contempt.
