  • If a black man is racist, is it okay?
    If it's the white man's racism that made him that way
    'Cause the bully is the victim they say
    By some sense they're all the same

    'Cause 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 colors in your mind

    I could tell you to go to war
    Or I could march for peace and fighting no more
    But how do I know which is right?
    And I hope he does when he sends you to fight

    'Cause 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 colors in your mind

    Should we act on a blame?
    Or should we chase the moments away?
    Should we live?
    Should we give?
    Remember forever the guns and the feathers in time

    'Cause 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 colors in your mind

    The piano keys are black and white
    But they sound like a million colors in your mind
    They sound like a million colors in your mind Writer/s: Katie Melua
