Monochrome

I've stayed in
Seventeen months and
I have been singing
The same tune over and over
Thinking the pieces of the puzzle that already fit but
Brokenness was comfort
Nonetheless I confess that
Lately there have been cracks in
My own cocoon now

Suddenly there's
Colours I can see
So bright, they blind my eyes
I play make believe
I know they'll fade
I've lived all my life in monochrome

I've woken
To a new morning
Oh how I wonder
Where's the catch?
And throwing all I've ever known away
Is the hardest thing I've had to do and
How could you ever perceive
A rainbow
When all you've only ever seen is black and white

The only thing that's left is all of these
Colours I can see
So bright, they blind my eyes
I play make believe
I know they'll fade
All that I know is

Colours I can see
So bright, they blind my eyes
I play make believe
I know they'll fade
I don't wanna live in monochrome
