Colour

I don't want to let the night in

See the colour leave the floor

Drain the rooms with all their life in

And see you leaving your life at the door

I don't want to draw the lines in

And watch everything divide

These aren't the bricks we'll build our lives with

But we'll bend under their weight all the time

You know my feelings choke

I've been hanging onto your hope

Well if all my love is on your side

We're no longer a place that I can hide

You know my feelings choke, yeah I

Want to be high enough to feel there's hope

Well if all my love is on your side

We're no longer a place that I can hide

You've given all you have but I'm waiting

I've given all I have but I'm praying for you

Now I know that you're on your own

This is not a place to grow

Well I pray to god though we've barely spoke

That we're no longer my only hope

I don't want to let the night win

Pulling words out of the walls

Stumbling over everything I've said

Praying the right ones break my fall

I know my feelings choke

They're the broken pieces buried in my throat

Saying love is only a space in time

And there's no longer a place for you in mine

You've given all you have but I'm waiting

I've given all I have but I'm praying for you

Now I know that you're on your own

This is not a place to grow

Well I pray to god though we've barely spoke

That we're no longer my only hope

I don't want to be the reason why this all fell apart

This is not your only chance to breathe. I guess for now it helps

I don't want to be the reason why this all fell apart

it will take another life to see

You give up all your nights and pray for this

And then in just one night we don't exist

You might see it all

But will it ever come to call

And it won't come back around

You've given all you have but I'm waiting

I've given all I have but I'm praying for you

Now I know that you're on your own

This is not a place to grow

Well I pray to god though we've barely spoke

That we're no longer my only hope
