lyrics

COLOURVISION
Took you 20 years of adaptations
To find the method that made you proud.
But by that point there’d been too much persuasion.
Yeah, we’d already felt around.
But in my head I tell a different version,
Makes it easier to be loud:
In my bed there was an awful person.
It was savage and unprofound.

I admit that I’m an awful person,
But here’s to mountains before they’re valleys.
It was a candid sort of composition,
That took me dangerously close to bowing out.

Ooh ooh ooh me!
I had a nebula playground
And saw you twinkling around
The new me.
And if a force so great and such a vision,
And if a force so cruel with such precision,
Could bow out, I’d do me!

You don’t always have to be so distant.
You don’t always have to be the victim,
You don’t always have to be a person
You don’t always have to be existing.
You don’t always have to be productive.
You don’t always have to be elusive.
You don’t always have to be da-dic-deh.
You don’t always have to be nonfiction.

I admit that I’m an awful person.
I’d admit that I’m an awful person
If you would too.
