Lyrics

Sunflowers against a painted sky
The warmth and shadows of passers-by
We're products of the pain of a prism
But while I impair the clarity of vision
She is a mustard yellow I am not
Topaz and sapphire side by side
Maybe in the back, I'll find somewhere I can hide
The gleam and shine that I don't possess
If I'm anything, well I'm a little less
But I've given you everything I've got
And it's the pain of being painted vantablack
It's the severing of the memories coming back
Daisy dreams and star-filled eyes
A heart that braves a million goodbyes
I met the dark with fury and blood while
She dances with an award-winning smile
She's auburn and peach and amber and I just want in
This is the pain of being painted vantablack
Trying to sever what I remember
When I surrender to the flashbacks
The pain in trying to recover
All of my colours
You never gave back
I want a part of that light
I want a part of that light
Sunflowers against a painted sky
On a bus ride home alone I wonder why
Why I let the pain of a prism
Bend me beyond repair, bring back my fears and
She is a mustard yellow I am not
And will never...
