Becomes the Color

I became the color
I became the daughter and the son
When the feast is over
Welcome to another one

I lay my body down, down, down upon the water
Wrapped up in the clothes of my mother and my father
Oh, this is longing, and I wanna be complete
I was waiting round in a little jump seat

I-I had hunger, a mouthful of interludes
You'll do anything just to get rescued
I had longing, isn't that the key?
Take, take, taste, taste, taste sweet

They said I'd gone south, said I'd gone asunder
They don't know hunger or what I been under
You are all laughing, thought I was debris
I was just free

We were ready to behave
But there's no freedom without no key
Whatever you think you've become
Don't worry 'bout it, dear, it's where you come from

Oh, no, no, take me from my misery
There's no such thing as living comfortably
There's no such thing as going home
I'm not formed of myself alone

All the other others they'll just fade to black
When you think you have me's when I don't look back
Keep on laughing, callin' after me
Keep on laughin', I'm just free

We were ready to behave
But there's no freedom without no key
Whatever you think you've become
Don't worry 'bout it, dear, it's where you come from

We were ready to behave
But there's no freedom without no key
Whatever you think you've become
Don't worry 'bout it, dear, it's where you come from
