Fault Line

Painter, come color up my life Ohh, painter, come color up my life Take away the misery Take away the strife Writer, make me up a play Ohh, writer, make the meaning gay For I don't need a poem Just give me words to say Singer, let me sing a song Ohh, singer, let me sing a song, yeah You don't have to worry 'Cause singer, you can sing along
