In Black And White

In Black and White She is charm she is anger She doesn’t seem to notice the shades of grey There will only ever be the right thing to say Oh I’m in trouble cause I’m a bubble flying To burst with a shot in a quick gunfight She can only see in black and white She can only see in black and white Me I see in many colours A pink and a mauve and a green sunset A tawny sort of brown and a russet gold So I’m a double crossing violet To burn with a torch in a fire fight She can only see in black and white She can only see in black and white Aching life yes I need her It’s written on my brain and the skin around the heart I can’t shake off this damning past So I’m a walking talking target To shoot in the blood with a poison dart She can only see in black and white She can only see in black and white She can only see in black and white She can only see in black and white
