City of Black & White Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Britanydean

I recently wrote an interpretation of this song. This evening, I had a discussion with my boyfriend about Yin and Yang. I looked deeper into it's meaning other than it meaning opposites; Here is what I found.

"Yin is characterized as slow, soft, yielding, diffuse, cold, wet, and passive; and is associated with water, earth, the moon, femininity, and nighttime. Yang, by contrast, is fast, hard, solid, focused, hot, dry, and aggressive; and is associated with fire, sky, the sun, masculinity and daytime."

I shouldn't have to go into too much detail with the lyrics and meanings for that to resonate. I just wanted to add this to my first interpretation.
