black and white

the good and the bad

they're all i own

they keep me human

 they hold me down

they both intertwine

mingling inside

black and white turns gray

nowhere it  hide

it wears on my mind

and drags me down

and i cannot hide

when night turns day

a pressure, it grows

building inside

and it hurts, it hurts

it goes with lies

it lies to convince

that i am good

and the bad isn't there

just like it should

but of course, of course

that cannot exist

for if only good shows

the bad is just hid

for like black and white

one cannot exist

without its counterpart

in a swirled silver mist

where words good and bad

have no meaning

and asking for help

just means nothing

where words clatter and rumble

meaning all yet none

fighting for space in my emotions

and they are what you can't shun

but if you got rid of

one or the other

you would not be you

and your mind would wither
