The colours are not colours.
This must be a shock,
For what are they if they are not colours?
Well, colours are only colours when hit by the right light at the right moment,
But even then we all see them differently
The night is evidence of this
You look at a colour upon the light
And all you see is its representation
A beautifully hand-crafted lie
Somebody crafted these colours into it,
Magnificently sure...
But if you look upon this colour
Once the black of the night has fallen
And drained away the world
You will see
Not pretty, bright red's and blue's of innocence
But the black's and grey's of life
No matter how hard you can look
The colours will have changed,
Twisted and morfed into something unrecognisable.
A lie
This is the true truth of a colour
...It is a lie
One designed to lighten and highten
And to create the fear of truth
A concoction of the human world,
Wrought to fool and impress
To impose and to play
Playing a game that they themselves don't understand
One of tricks and illusions
One to keep you up all night writing
Simple things with lying words
Everything is a lie,
Hell, even a lie is a lie
Because when Earth is no longer fit for mankind
The sun stops spinning
And the understand of anything
We mere humans have accomplished to comprehend
Is gone
This is when everything will be nothing
There will be no nothings to interpret
Not even a few measley words
Strewn together with mace and lace
They will amount to nothing,
And yet,
The colours.
Stop to see the colours
The same ones
That lie in wait for the light
To jump and give you a fright
For one day
When the night view is never ending
You wont have the glory of being fooled or illuded
And that is the greatest part of life
That life does not really matter
So why not see what's not really there
While we still can
With the mirror as my witness
i shall now turn this flesh to stone
For all monsters
need to be defeated with a happy ending
Lying in this bed of broken glass
Subdueing to the lose roses
The scent of forgotten places
Stealing the honour of my head
Wait and watch the snowflakes drift
Play for me just one more riff
I'll hold it forever
I'll hold it forever
Come with me to sundown town
Never'll you see another frown
I've got you forever
I've got you forever
I promise to hold on forever-more
I wish my eyes could portrey all that I feel for you
Due to the fact that my lips can lie about what is true
My eyes couldn't fail in this way
Because even when I close them,
I can still see you.
I want to lie next to you
Sometimes I look at the sky
I can only imagine what the clouds look like
but when I see you, I remember
And i want to do everything that you want me to
Just make another promise you can't keep
Lie to me once more so that I can sleep
