Colourblind

I can't fucking do this!
I suck!

I tried colouring you
Changing your hue
To inspire something all new that I couldn't do

Now all I paint is grey skies
A rainbow washed in turpentine
It left me in black and white
I wasn't always colourblind

I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you

Tone down, how I preferred every word
And wash out all that you were
Lines that I blurred

Now all I paint is grey skies
A rainbow washed in turpentine
It left me in black and white
I wasn't always colourblind

I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you

I'm not saying I love you, I just mean
Maybe grass on your side really was green
And I came in with a fire burning red
And I turned your meadow yellow instead
I'm not saying I miss you, I just think
I have dreams where I kiss you and it's pink
And I wake up in a room full of blue
And I remember how violet looked on you
