Colourless

My mind is drowning in these thoughts that I'm not me Above the surface floats a person I could be This silence is stable I feel it building up inside I'm tired of these labels I want to be what I decide Not what they say makes me best I'll rise Until I'm not colourless My lungs are straining on these painful words untied They want to burst and fill me up with hollow lies This creaking old table Where we fought hard on every side I'm tired of these labels I want to be what I decide Not what they say makes me best I'll rise Until I'm not colourless Colourless "You're not alone" Those words you said to me You lost your home But found a family I choose to be what I decide Not what they say makes me best I'll rise Until I'm not colourless I'll rise Until I'm not colourless
