A life shot in black and white,
|
Lays me down,
|
Takes to me where,
|
Words still fail me, yes!
|
A life shot in black and white,
|
Shames me now, as it takes us there,
|
Where nothing can break this.
|
Toiling back, I am still ashen,
|
I keep falling back,
|
On what I believe still matters.
|
I'm slamming on the brakes,
|
And like a haunted child, I was born to break.
|
|
A life shot in black and white,
|
Throws me down, then raises me,
|
With colours still bleeding... yes.
|
It's all there in black and white,
|
We've seen it now, seen it there,
|
And the moment's not leaving.
|
|
A life shot in black and white,
|
Stares me down, take me where,
|
And like doves we won't leave never.
|
We're still here in black and white,
|
Changes now, changes there but the spirit can't leave us!
