Black and White Wednesday: Memorial Hill

Mid Week Blues is right below

These sculptures sit at the top of 'Memorial Hill' in Highlands, NJ




My understanding is that they are meant to signify the loss of the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001.

They were beautiful and interesting at first glance but when you put them into the context of 9/11, they evoke much more powerful emotions. Very haunting, indeed.

"Black And White"

Lost in my own World
Lost in my own World
Lost in my
Lost in my own World
Lost in my own World
Lost in my
Getting to the right
Getting to the wrong
Getting mine
Getting to the right
Getting to the wrong
Getting high

Losing your mind
Losing your mind
It's bluring
It's fading
Your soul's on fire
It's black and white

Burning inside
Burning inside
Burning into white
Burning inside
Burning inside
Burning into night
Yourself collides
Yourself collides
Yourself into mine
Yourself collides
Yourself collides
Yourself splinters like

Losing your mind
Losing your mind
It's bluring
It's fading
Your soul's on fire
It's black and white

Blurring the light
Blurring the light
It's ours for the taking
Flickering colors
It's black and white
