Yellow

Taken at a glance
I'm trapped within a second delusion
That eats away at everything I ever
I'm eating at a cake that tastes so dull and empty
I'm nothing but the puppet that you went and made me
Once more beating in the closet
We held our bodies close and that was when we saw it
We'll fall asleep
And we'll shed the beat
Just safely watch this dream

Don't leave me all alone
I'm just a fool that never'll learn no more
Come wake up and make up
A life that fits the lie you wore
All the little toys were put away within the night
Let me keep it, the feeling, beating, staying by my side

Love and lies are a price that I would rather throw away
We'll tear the skin from all those precious happy days but
If you find that this cheap life ever moved you
Perhaps another lame summer day could follow too

'Cause of the death was nothing but a curious mind
Falling down above while acting cool and sly he
Was doomed right from the start to be a worthless failure
We smile with a grin and lock him in the jail here
Once more beating in the closet
While waiting all alone he had finally saw it
We'll change the ending, the scene is bending, my friend

We'll keep on chasing after worth for worth for worth
Counting down the seconds
Roll the body up
And defend it
The heavens and the earth
Are both inverted tell me
Why, oh why
See it's fading and blurred and

I can still recall the scene I saw outside the window mellow
How nice I'd be to smash to death that sickened yellow
Yellow yellow
Yellow yellow
Yellow yellow
Yellow yellow

Yellow yellow

You willingly avert your eyes
Those days will never come again
They've long since faded out of reach
So cold and broken
You'll never find a paradise
Within the space your arms reach
Still though
I feel all your heat

Love and lies are a price that I would rather throw away
We'll tear the skin from all those precious happy days but
If you find that this cheap life ever moved you
Perhaps another lame summer day could follow too
