It's Not Black and White

It's not black and white
It's a dirty shade of red
Those that say this is the only way
Are just too easily led

Its not about the gun
The silver bullet you prescribe
Could you care less about the emptiness
In the world that you describe

I know you need to point a finger
At a cause for your pain
But what you are doing isn't right
And maybe you need something to blame
But it's not black and white

Cruelty through incompetence
Is no better than by intent
Close your eyes and sterilize
Until all the life is spent

There is no sense that we can see
In the lies you can't believe
The work of a gun cannot be undone
Its not clear what you'll achieve

I know you need to point a finger
At a cause for your pain
But what you are doing isn't right
And maybe you need something to blame
But it's not black and white

It's not black and white
It's a dirty shade of red
Those that say this is the only way
Are just too easily led

Its not about the gun
The silver bullet you prescribe
Could you care less about the emptiness
In the world that you describe

I know you need to point a finger
At a cause for your pain
But what you are doing isn't right
And maybe you need something to blame
But it's not black and white
