And I wish I could live in that world of pastels Where the dark isn’t as frightening And the light isn’t as harsh Where everything is mellow Drenched in sunlight’s yellow
I wish I could live in a world made of clouds Where edges aren’t sharp And curves are forgiving Where everything is a soft hue With mountains made of blue
And I wish I could live in that world of light Where shadows aren’t as dark And beams are the opposite of hard Where happiness is bright A prism made from white
I switch on every light in my house Making it glow like a star in the night In the hope that you will find me Or that the absence of darkness will make me feel Less lonely Less broken Less like there is a hole in my chest In the place where a heart should beat
