- In Black and White -

To dream in black and white
The symbol of simpler times
The solid line drawn between
The shades of right and wrong

Existence fell upon the purity
Upon the childhood naivety
Upon the innocence not knowing
Worldly evils or painful memory

One thing cannot destroy it
Except in the numbers of age
What a dreadful tragedy of loss
To lose the state of simplicity

Entered did one into obsession
Of money, success, and greed
Superficial wants that do mislead
Onto the path where our sins breed

Oh, how I wish I could go back
To the time of simple measures
When all was clear and vision meant
To see it all in black and white
