lyrics

Often in the early hours
Comes a longing from inside
That the garments of the day to day have not yet come to hide
Don’t you recognize me?

I had tried to tell the feeling
That’s been knocking at my door
No I’m sorry but I’m not the one that you’ve been looking for
Won’t you leave me in peace?

But if colors are the wounds of light
Then wouldn’t it be a pretty sight
To see yourself exactly as you are
Cause every pain can bring to you another shade another hue
To dream up a beautiful life

Often in the evening hours
When the day is nearly done
In the quiet there’s no longer battles to be lost or won
Lay down your sword and your shield

I had tried so hard to find
A single perfect place to stand
But if you’re honest then you’ll move and can’t say where you’ll land
You know, you don’t have to know

Cause if colors are the wounds of light
Then wouldn’t it be a pretty sight
To see yourself exactly as you are
Cause every pain can bring to you another shade another hue
To dream up a beautiful life
