This is a song from "Lives in the Balance"....BLACK AND WHITELong before you ever saw your chancesYou were going to burn this city downTired of the fashions and the dancesTired of the people standing aroundTicking like a bomb in the nightAnd you knew you were rightBlack and whiteBlame it on the time it took to leave hereBlame it on the ones who slowed you downBlame it on the kind of friends you knew hereBlame it on the sickness going 'roundGoing round and round in the nightWith your heart out of sightWith your world burning brightLike a moth 'round a lightBlack and whiteThe pictures of a life in flamesBlack and whiteThe picture of a life remainsAnd the search you half rememberSetting out on at the startIs burning like an ember in your heartTime running out time running outFor the fool still asking what his life is aboutTime running out time running outTime running out time running outYeah, beyond a shadow of a doubtTime running out time running outTell them that you've gone to find a personSomeone you lost track of long agoTell them that it's someone you need worse thanAnybody else you'll ever knowTicking like a bomb in the nightYou were strong, you were lightYou were fast, you were brightThen you were gone in the lightBlack and whiteThe pictures of a life in flamesBlack and whiteThe picture of a life remainsAnd the high ideals and the promiseYou once dressed the future inAre dancing in the embers with the windTime running out time running outFor the fool still asking what his life is aboutTime running out time running outTime running out time running outYeah, beyond a shadow of a doubtTime running out time running out(c) 1986 SWALLOW TURN MUSIC, ASCAP
