Array ( [sid] => 49324 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Black and white [time] => 2004-05-27 12:21:04 [hometext] => When love is seen as something unacceptable [bodytext] => We’re all taught what’s right and wrong
The world of black and white
I can imagine it now
You’re here in front of me and I’m here in front of you
With this entire, cruel, cold world
Spinning and spinning out of control
Leaving this wash of colour to fall upon us
I suppose they all think they’re right
Maybe we should be trapped in a cage
A sign saying “Forbidden” on the door
It’s not what’s important to me
Because you’re here in front of me and I’m here in front of you
While they all spin out of control
Telling me I’m wrong
A thousand knives could stab me in the back
Right now as I stand here, in the still of your eyes
The pain would be non existent
It would leave me untouched
And leave you untouched
Because as this crazy world of right and wrong
Paints us all in black and white
You stand here in front of me and I’m here in front of you
You paint me in this coat of colour
Protecting me with your eyes
Surrounding us in a brand new world
Each layer bouncing them all off
So as you’re here in front of me and I’m here in front of you
There’ll be no right
There’ll be no wrong
We’ll paint the cage, we’ll change the world [comments] => 3 [counter] => 196 [topic] => 33 [informant] => carmen_queasy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SecretLove )
