Black & White Legs

Black covered the head, and white covered the torso

His legs remain neutral to take him where he needs to go

White was the sun, but black was the day

But his legs remain neutral to keep him on his way


His prospects are black, but his outlook is white

And his legs remain neutral to continue the fight

The moon radiated white, but the sky had turned black

And his legs remain neutral still deciding whom to attack


White painted their faces, and black were their hearts

But his legs remained neutral and ready to depart

Black were their words, and white were their eyes

But his legs remained neutral bearing no real surprise


Black veiled their faces, and white roses covered their graves

But his legs remained neutral still not sure whom to save

Black were her actions, but white were her intentions

But his legs remained neutral while he debated with his convictions


A colorless world, it’s either one thing or the other

And his legs remain neutral until he finds another

Try to paint it your way, but it can only be fight or flight

And his legs remain neutral until it stops being black and white


Black were their motives, but white was their blank slate

And his legs were neutral as he awaited his fate

Black was our demise, but white will be our souls

And still his legs are neutral as he evaluates his goals


White was the snow fall, and black was the ash

But his legs remain neutral as he looks on at the trash

White was the fire, but black was their desire

And his legs remain neutral while they call each other liars


White are the waves that the black tides make

But his legs remain neutral so he can avoid the wake

White is the light that leads you into the black

But his legs remain neutral because he's afraid to look back


White covered the head, and black covered the torso

His legs remain neutral to take him where he needs to go

White was the sun, but black was the day

But his legs remain neutral to keep him on his way


A colorless world, it’s either one thing or the other

And his legs remain neutral until he finds his lover

Try to paint it your way, but it can only be fight or flight

And his legs remain neutral until it stops being black and white
