You were as yellow as the sun So bright it hurt to stare directly at you Full of flowers and the smell of spring I was as blue as the sea Strong enough to bring you down with a single motion But unable to stop myself We didn't mix and make green Instead I turned darker and so did you I was waging wars on myself And I can't thank you enough for trying to dull the pain But I liked you better when you were yellow I know it makes me a terrible person to wish you gone but you shined so much brighter in the sun.

The colors of you and I
You were as yellow as the sun So bright it hurt to stare directly at you Full of flowers and the smell of spring I was as blue as the sea Strong enough to bring you down with a single motion But unable to stop myself We didn't mix and make green Instead I turned darker and so did you I was waging wars on myself And I can't thank you enough for trying to dull the pain But I liked you better when you were yellow I know it makes me a terrible person to wish you gone but you shined so much brighter in the sun.
