Colorblind

[MERCEDES]

When the world is seeing yellow

I only see gray

When everybody sees the rainbow

I'm stuck in the rain

You take a little piece of me

Every time you leave

I don't think that I'll

Ever find that silver lining

Or a reason to smile

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams

Now I'm colorblind, colorblind

When did my heart get so full

Of a never mind, never mind

Did you know that you stole

The only thing I needed

Always black and white in my eyes

I'm colorblind

Ain't it funny that you managed

To just wash away

Even pictures that you're not in

Have started to fade

I try to play my favorite songs

But I can't sing along

The words don't feel the same

You've taken all the best things from me

And thrown them away

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams

Now I'm colorblind, colorblind

When did my heart get so full

Of a never mind, never mind

Did you know that you stole

The only thing I needed

Always black and white in my eyes

I'm colorblind

I'll wait

For roses to be red again

And I hate

That you took my blue from the ocean

Give me back green greens and goldens

My purples, my blues, you stole them

How long will I be broken?

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams

Now I'm colorblind, colorblind

When did my heart get so full

Of a never mind, never mind

Did you know that you stole

The only thing I needed

Only black and white in my eyes

I'm colorblind

It's only black and white in my eyes

I'm colorblind
