In Living Colour

Living in Colour - Frightened Rabbit

Living in colour, we're living in colour.

I can see the paint on your toes.

Living in colour and we're living

and even in the blackout, I know

I am floating, I, I am floating

With my eyes closed with no sails

I am soaking, I, I am weathered

by the winter of mixed drinks

Am I dancing, am, Am I nervous?

Simply spinning in my own grave

You were asking, you, you were asking

And with two steps, I'm saved

Living in colour, we're living in colour.

I can see the paint on your toes.

Living in colour and living

and even in the blackout, I know

Weeks gone by, I was weak

I was paler than a pine box that holds bones

She poked the iris, then she pierced a hole

and watched the colour rush forth

Modern madonna, who held my head in 

warm hands with pink nails,

mark my mouth

whisper that the sickness will go away

Living in colour, we're living in colour.

I can see the paint on your toes.

Living in colour and living

and even in the blackout, I know

And though I dreamt with a rapid eye

By day I hope to rapidly die

and have organs laid on ice

wait for somebody that would treat them right

And as the night started swallowing

you put the blood to my blue lips

forced the life through still veins

filled my heart with red again

Living in colour, we're living in colour.

I can see the paint on your toes.

Living in colour and living

and even in the blackout, I know.

Play now.

Disclaimer: I am really loving these guys right now and I had trouble picking one song to put on the blog - so the only reason i chose this one was for the cool colour pics - courtesy of we heart it.
