Lyrics

Colony

[Verse 1]

Together we killed the colony

We'll take away the heart in me

A looser grip, failed to notice it

Pulling away when you reach for it

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been moving slowly since then

Take the call to break the pattern

We could find a reason to leave

But you will always have part of me

[Verse 2]

I held your hand and felt your skin

But I could not get used to it

Together we killed the colony

We'll take away the heart in me

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been moving slowly since then

Take the call to break the pattern

We could find a reason to leave

But you will always have part of me

[Bridge]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

[Chorus]

I've been moving slowly since then

Take the call to break the pattern

We could find a reason to leave

But you will always have part of me
