Colors and Shapes
As a child I learned to fear the lord of the light
And my attitude and worldview were always on the right
Told never to set foot in the dead of the night
For if I found myself alone and lost my place I might
Stay lost
Be lost for a little bit of time
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
The older I've gotten the darker I've grown
Not my skin full of melanin
And I've nearly lost my bed in the house I call my home
And I'll renounce my rightful claim to the throne
To build a new one
Upon these things that I've carried on
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
All the lovers I've had have eventually become lovers I've lost
The jarring pain from my wounds reminds me of the cost
I've been alone
On my own dancing in the pouring rain
But from these lessons and all I've lost I've got everything to gain
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
And my attitude and worldview were always on the right
Told never to set foot in the dead of the night
For if I found myself alone and lost my place I might
Stay lost
Be lost for a little bit of time
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
The older I've gotten the darker I've grown
Not my skin full of melanin
And I've nearly lost my bed in the house I call my home
And I'll renounce my rightful claim to the throne
To build a new one
Upon these things that I've carried on
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
All the lovers I've had have eventually become lovers I've lost
The jarring pain from my wounds reminds me of the cost
I've been alone
On my own dancing in the pouring rain
But from these lessons and all I've lost I've got everything to gain
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
You need to wade in the darkness
Withstand the abyss
And in the contrast you'll find all the colors you had missed
And with these shades that you find your canvas will be complete
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out with the colors and the shapes
Fleshed out
