New Colors

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.

Orange, yellow, green

It's all the same to me

I've seen them all

A million times before

I have half a mind

To climb up in the sky

And see new colors

Away from the Sun

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this so damn bad

Old towns here are mean

Spit fire and gasoline

But all I want

Is solitude

I have half a mind

To climb up in the sky

And hide myself

Inside the Moon

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this so damn bad

I give up my sight

To see

I give up my air

To breathe

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this

Don't tell me that I can't

Don't, oh, don't tell me that I can't

I need this so damn bad

I give up my sight

To see

I give up my air

To breathe

I give up my sight

To see

I give up my air

To breathe

I give up my sight

To see

I give up my air

To breathe
