Black and white, are the colors we've spread
Right and wrong have seemed to be the first threat
To the waters that are calm
To the dove in our palms
I know you want to understand me
I know you don't want me to just agree
I know you've got your stand
And I know you want more than just peace
You want the truth
But it's got sides
We argue there's only one
We get lost in the night sometimes
Can we keep on trying
To see left and right
Can we keep us together
Can we shed a little light
Can we see the whole picture
Can we reach a greater height
Can we talk this out
Can we talk it all night
Cause we want the same things
That's why we fight
Isn't it crazy - we want the same things
We gotta talk until it's right
We want the truth
And it's got sides
Let's find what's in me and you
All the love between the lines
Let's talk about our pain
Share our fears
Talk about hate
And feelings of love and tears
Can we talk this out, can we talk this out
Can we talk this out
