Lyrics

A Sad Cartoon

In bloom, you sing
Such beautiful colours
What a shame
In this world, that beauty alerts the others

Fray from the light
'Til you see it
I'm gone

"Stare into my eyes"
"I'll show you who I am inside"
"It's simple I'm certain from behind the curtain"
"It's in your hands this time"

Colours are swirling now that we're falling, what are the odds?
Now that we're falling, colours are swirling, why were you lost?
Colours are swirling now that we're falling, what are the odds?
Now that we're falling, colours are swirling, why were you lost?
Stretch to the stars you know (colours are swirling now that we're falling, what are the odds?)
Through tunnels they follow

Inside a room of red
Through the window
Just know you found me
So now you know

"Stare into my eyes"
"I'll show you who I am inside"
"It's simple I'm certain from behind the curtain"
"It's in your hands this time"

And still, it wasn't enough to make you say
"What would you do if you weren't afraid?"
