Color

Moments of here

forever in between

turning a year

turning a dream

turning the shade

of everything else

to see for myself.

What's hiding behind

a drive in the rain

tears for the strangers

a life in your name

I've been thinking about

living without

if the colors change

Maybe I'm the gentle devil

with the guilty smile

where the hell is now or never

but I thought for a while

maybe you're the perfect angel

but the dust won't clear

it was not enough to keep you here.

Somehow I'm still standing

I've always been the one to find new light

when the sun won't burn

somehow I'm still floating

I've always been the one to sing new songs

when the color turns.

Moments of now

couldn't sustain

belief in somehow

acceptance of pain

the color alone

the color of home

the vision remains

It was black into white

fall into gray

too wrong or too right

or too far away

I've been thinking about

living without

these colors today.

Maybe I'm the gentle devil

with the long black coat

where the hell is now or never

but the memories float

maybe you're the perfect angel

but the heaven wouldn't show

it was just too hard to let you go.

Somehow I'm still standing

I've always been the one to find new light

when the sun won't burn

somehow I'm still floating

I've always been the one to sing new songs

when the color turns.

Moments of here

forever in between

turning a year

turning a dream

turning the shade

of everything else

and maybe I'm finally learning how to tell

when I'm better off just standing....

I've always been the one to find new light

when the color turns..
