Color Me The Mourning, Pts. 1, 2 & 3

"Do you have any advice for the incoming freshman"

"Turn around right now"

The Moon revolves around the Earth
The Earth revolves around the Sun
The Sun revolves around itself
And I revolve around the One

The sun it burns so very hot
But not so hot as to turn blue
I won't pretend I'm what I'm not
I won't pretend I'm turn of Two

The karma in this place is upside down
My room's no better than a shotgun shack
I'm in a gallery of cracks
I'm thinking I should watch my back

A piece of dirt is higher than
My station, I find as of late
In certain circles I am banned
My heart is dark and cold with hate

And it won't thaw, and it won't melt
Your hope of healing days are lost
I'll never forget how it felt
To walk by with a touch of frost

The karma in this place is upside down
Not just this school, but this whole town
I'm not your fool, I'm not your clown
I'll turn your smile into a frown

I'll be whatever I want me to be
You'll see whatever I want you to see

So just know

The Third Star In The Sky will be mine
Just like snow
Is heard, hardly defined
I will rise and destroy the Night
What a beautiful sight

The Third Star In The Sky will be mine
Just like snow
Is heard, hardly defined
I will rise and destroy the Night
What a beautiful sight

Gone like the wind
Gone without sin
Today's the day I escape

Dressed all in black
Never looking back
I got by with a knee on my scrape

Home again
(What about the lost)
Can't say the same for my friends
(At what cost)
I don't know
Gone in a dash
Ego-Trip And Flash
Today's the day I get out
(BFA)

Into the car
Journey so far
Free from the forests of doubt
(You're not alone anymore)

Home again
(What about the lost)
Wish I could say the same for my friends
(At what cost)
You should know

Color me the mourning
Color me in black
Shove it where the sun don't shine
Cause I'm never coming back

I'm going where the flowers grow and
Where I have some space to breathe
You can keep your lectures about time and place
I see you seethe

I just forgot
My favorite thought
Down the road I go home

Like a traveling
Man unraveling
I know that all roads lead to Rome, to be

Home at last
(What about the lost)
Will I be able to outrun my past
(I doubt it)
Yes I do

Color me the mourning
And dress me in black
Shove it where the sun don't shine,
Cause I'm never coming back

I'm going where the music plays
And young people truly grow
You better pray you get away with it
Cause there's hell to pay if you don't

What a ride
I almost died
My brother screams at the top of his lungs
(YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE)

Sleep in the back
Have myself a laugh
(Yeah, go ahead)
The first I've had since the start of year one

Oh, I'm free
(What about the lost)
What a powerful position to be
(Now I'll never know it again)

Color me the morning
And give me clothing black
You can all go fuck yourselves
I'm never going back
I'm going where it's beautiful
And where I'm not afraid to live
And you can make your separate peace
But Rock and Roll
Rock And Roll Never Forgives

And you should know

The Third Star In The Sky will be mine
Just like snow
Is heard, hardly defined
I will rise and destroy the Night
What a marvelous sight

Even if the memories are gone
Even if you don't remember this song
I will be there
In the end

Cause I'm looking at your lips
And I can notice
That the memories are gone
The memories are gone
The memories are gone
Forever

Ooh-ooh
