(Verse 1)
In the mirror, two faces I see,
One of shadow, one of light, staring back at me.
A pull to the left, a pull to the right,
Lost in a grayscale world, trapped in endless night.
Black and white, a cosmic fight,
Which one holds the truth, which one holds the light?
I close my eyes, but the lines are still there,
A symphony of confusion in the silent air.
(Chorus)
I'm a tightrope walker on a wire so thin,
Balancing between where I've been and where I'm going in.
My heart's a compass spinning 'round and 'round,
Searching for a truth that cannot be found.
But I feel a flicker, a distant gleam,
A silver lining in this cloudy dream.
I'm walking forward, step by step, you see,
Hoping someday a single color will set me free.
(Verse 2)
Some say to choose a side, to plant your flag,
But all their labels feel like a heavy drag.
Am I a hero in white, or a villain in black?
The world's a chessboard, and I can't turn back.
I'm a shade of gray, a blur of what's to be,
A whisper in the wind, a lonely decree.
I'm lost in the silence, a broken plea,
Just looking for a spark, just looking to be me.
(Chorus)
I'm a tightrope walker on a wire so thin,
Balancing between where I've been and where I'm going in.
My heart's a compass spinning 'round and 'round,
Searching for a truth that cannot be found.
But I feel a flicker, a distant gleam,
A silver lining in this cloudy dream.
I'm walking forward, step by step, you see,
Hoping someday a single color will set me free.
(Bridge)
Maybe the answer's not in the dark or the bright,
Maybe it's the journey toward a different light.
To paint my own canvas, with colors unknown,
And build a new path, with seeds I have sown.
(Chorus)
I'm a tightrope walker on a wire so thin,
Balancing between where I've been and where I'm going in.
My heart's a compass spinning 'round and 'round,
Searching for a truth that cannot be found.
But I feel a flicker, a distant gleam,
A silver lining in this cloudy dream.
I'm walking forward, step by step, you see,
Hoping someday a single color will set me free.
(Outro)
I'm walking toward the light,
Putting up a fight,
I'm walking toward the light,
Out of the black and white.
