Daily Black and White
The man opened the newspaper
To see how the world had changed
Since yesterday's newspaper
The paper wrapped round his face
Filled his ears
Covered his eyes
Silenced his mouth
Read his mind
Suffocated him until
He forgot his name
He turned black and white

Yeah.
He tried to show the people how evil Nazis were before it got too bad.
There were good people and they tried to stop the horror.
A lot of the artists fled germany before the Holocaust.
Thanks for taking the time to look at them.
