Lyrics
New Worlds
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the beginning there were colours
Flowing over
Every one was a-runnin around
And it was so chaotic
Dripping right down to the heart of it all
Now everything is so divided
Cut into little pieces
I don’t even know
How to pull it all together
Did I travel so far from my colourful soul, yeah
Far from my colourful soul, yeah?
Chorus:
I got so far from my colourful soul
How did I move so far away
So far away from my colourful soul?
There is a vanishing point
Comes a time
When you know that you’re messing around
And you gotta get some water
Cos you’re all dried up at the heart of it all
Now I can be a better woman
I can make it much brighter for everyone else
I’ll pull it all together
Did I travel so far from my colourful soul, yeah
Far from my colourful soul, yeah?
I got so far from my colourful soul
How did I move so far away
So far from my colourful soul?
Now wait a minute
Wait a minute
Put another coin into the slot
Of my mechanical soul yeah
Rolling along so far away
Can I ever get back to the beginning again?
My world is suffering from
A loss of brilliance
If I could take off my skin
Then I would see all the colours there, uh-huh
The colours there, uh-huh
Strip it all way
Everything
Strip it all way
Everything
We
Could make
Such bright
Such great
New worlds
Chorus:
I got so far from my colourful soul
How did I move so far away
So far from my colourful soul?
Now wait a minute
Wait a minute
Put another coin into the slot
My mechanical soul is
Rolling along so far away
Can I ever get back to the beginning again?
