Primary Colours
We didn't talk on the long drive there
And it wasn't hard not to stare
In fact i found it hard to look at all
And she wasn't there to catch me
So it's good that i didn't fall
I didn't feel my feet swept out from under me
Nor the urge to get down upon my knees
And though she made me die a pleasant little death
When i think about you, i get all out of breath
I get drunk when i get depressed
I stay up when i need rest
And i wonder why i feel like shit
And i don't know what it is
I need to do to get better
But i'm pretty sure this ain't it
All the red flags didn't look red at the time
You were the miniature heart inside of mine
But i was filled with poison and i didn't know what to do
I was filled with poison and i let it leach through to you
But there's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams
But it keeps changing and i don't know what it means
There's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams
And it keeps changing and i don't know what it means
Yeah the symbol's not the thing it used to symbolize
This is not a pipe, it's a crock of lies
This is not a gateway to heaven like we planned
This is not the ocean, it's a bucket full of sand
There's a symbol i keep seeing when i get high
And it keeps changing and i don't understand why
It's in primary colours
It's so vibrant it won't leave me alone
And it keeps changing but i think it means
Home
And it wasn't hard not to stare
In fact i found it hard to look at all
And she wasn't there to catch me
So it's good that i didn't fall
I didn't feel my feet swept out from under me
Nor the urge to get down upon my knees
And though she made me die a pleasant little death
When i think about you, i get all out of breath
I get drunk when i get depressed
I stay up when i need rest
And i wonder why i feel like shit
And i don't know what it is
I need to do to get better
But i'm pretty sure this ain't it
All the red flags didn't look red at the time
You were the miniature heart inside of mine
But i was filled with poison and i didn't know what to do
I was filled with poison and i let it leach through to you
But there's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams
But it keeps changing and i don't know what it means
There's a symbol i keep seeing in all of my dreams
And it keeps changing and i don't know what it means
Yeah the symbol's not the thing it used to symbolize
This is not a pipe, it's a crock of lies
This is not a gateway to heaven like we planned
This is not the ocean, it's a bucket full of sand
There's a symbol i keep seeing when i get high
And it keeps changing and i don't understand why
It's in primary colours
It's so vibrant it won't leave me alone
And it keeps changing but i think it means
