Colorblind

When the world is seeing yellow
I only see gray
When everybody sees the rainbow
I’m stuck in the rain

You take a little piece of me
Every time you leave
I don’t think that I’ll ever find that silver lining
Or reason to smile

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams
Now I’m colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart
Get so full of the never mind never mind

Did you know
That you stole the only thing I needed
Always black and white in my eyes
I’m colorblind

Ain’t it funny that you managed
To just wash away
Even pictures that you’re not in
Have started to fade
I tried to play my favorite songs

But I can’t sing along
The words don’t feel the same
You’ve taken all the best things from me
And thrown them away

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams
Now I’m colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart
Get so full of the never mind never mind

Did you know
That you stole the only thing I needed
Always black and white in my eyes
I’m colorblind

I’ll wait
For roses to be red again
And I hate
That you took my blue from the ocean
Give me back green greens and goldens
My purples, my blues, you stole them
How long will I be broken

You know I used to paint such vibrant dreams
Now I’m colorblind, colorblind
When did my heart get so full of the never mind
Did you know

That you stole the only thing I needed
Only black and white in my eyes
I’m colorblind
It's only black and white in my eyes
I’m colorblind
