No Color

I remember
Black mascara
Painting your face
I remember
Dark sunglasses
When clouds were grey
Remember silence
Remember tears
Remember still

I remember
Black cars pulling up
To take you away
The smell of the fall
And the endless rain
Remember shivers
Remember cold
Remember still

Now I hesitate
Levitate
Between memories
Elevate, was it hate
That got thru to me
My mistake, was it fate
That brought you to me
Now I’m losing

Why can’t I see any color at all
When I dream about those days?
How did I let these images drain away
When all I do is suffer?
No color!
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
No color!

I remember
Black clouds blooming
As I shouldered the blame
The gun-metal grey
On that trembling day
Remember thunder
Remember fear
Remember still

I remember
Biting my lip
To stifle a laugh
I tried to say your name
But all that came out
Was a whisper
Hell is empty
The devil’s here

Now you disintegrate
Levitate
Into memory
Elevate
Was it hate
That got you to see
My mistake
It was fate
That brought you to me
Now I’m losing

Why can’t I see any color at all
When I dream about those days?
How did I let these images drain away
When all I do is suffer?
No color!
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
No color!

I think I thought
But I forgot
I think I think
Too much
Have a problem
For every answer
Striking at the ocean
With a broken hammer
I think I think
Too much
I think I think
Too much

Why can’t I see any color at all
When I dream about those days?
How did I let these images drain away
When all I do is suffer?
No color!
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
Why can’t I see any color at all?
No color!
No color!

We can break apart like stars
And throw ourselves against the sky
