The line between wrong and right
This is a part of a song I find so deep in meaning. It tells a story of what lies between wrong and right - which indeed, is a only the width of a thread from a spider's web. It is that thin, and that hard to differentiate but carries such different consequences and is so opposite in meanings. It's kinda like the line between hate and love, good and bad. Let's just say they..co-exist.
If a black man is racist, is it okay?
If it's the white man's racism that made him that way,
Because the bully is the victim they say,
By some sense they're all the same.
Because the line between wrong and right,
Is the width of a thread from a spider's web.
The piano keys are black and white,
But they sound like a million colours in your mind.
I could tell you to go to war,
Or I could march for peace and fighting no more,
How do I know which is right,
And I hope he does when he sends you to fight.
Because the line between wrong and right,
Is the width of a thread from a spider's web,
The piano keys are black and white,
But they sound like a million colours in your mind.
