Lyrics
Light comes in here less and less
Grey is the colour of my trues love's mess
In an alabaster room, this monochrome
Atonal caress
It reminds me of a film I saw
Where no-one said very much at all
They just walked around and drove in cars
And everyone was secretly armed - No-one ever laughed.
(chorus)
I have got a rainbow in my brain
I would put myself in a golden frame
I am lifting myself up high
I want to be a little closer to the sky
Pour your heart into my hand
I promise I can hold you
I will keep my fingers tight
But nothing stops the flow into that hole, and fills you up with light
See this dust of fifteen years
Blown away in a single day
lay yourself down on my floor
There's always some way out, one last chance, emergency door
(chorus)
(repeat last line)
