Sleeping with the light on, ever since I was young
In a bed only fit for the coward who sleeps in it
And just like a fear of flying
This fear is king

Now I would beg steal and borrow to people that I'm yellow
and I don't want to regret, a life that hasn't happened yet
I'm all dressed up, nowhere to go
Sitting in the sunshade all aglow
My light's on, now let go, I am yellow.

See these cracks on my skin, like the cracks in the porcelain
they reveal where the rain has been, and that's why I can't let you in
So what kind of life is this
when fear is king

Now I would beg steal and borrow to people that I'm yellow
and I don't want to regret a life that hasn't happened yet
I'm all dressed up nowhere to go
sitting in the sunshade all aglow
my lights on, now let go, I am yellow

I'm captive, I'm a slave
my own hands kept me tied to this place
I'll hose in and shoot fear in the face
Now let me go

Now I would beg steal and borrow to people that I'm yellow
and I don't want to regret a life that hasnt happened yet
I'm all dressed up nowhere to go
sitting in the sunshade all aglow
my light's on, now let go, I am yellow

I am yellow
I am yellow
I am yellow
