lyrics

If life’s a colour by numbers I don’t see the appeal

What is with this bigger picture
You printed out for me
It’s time to cross some lines
‘cause my colours are the key

I’ve been staring at this paper for quite some time
But I’m still drawing blanks
Not making sense of the task implied

I’ll start the application
But do I dare to say
I’d rather stare into the sun
Than at what you hand to me

What is with this bigger picture
You printed out for me
It’s time to cross some lines
‘cause my colours are the key

Drink it up, fill me up
What a waste of
Ink there is on the page
Hard to clean up
Fountain pens tend to be
Tough to handle
Messy hands tryna reach
For the blotting
Paper that’s on my desk
But I don’t think
This will change anything
Just because there’s
Nothing left of the lines
That once guided
Me to where I began
Struggling to fit in
