lyrics

i found colour on the highway
i plucked it from the grass and brought it home to watch it grow
to watch it die, just so i'd know i'm still alive
and i found colour in the backyard
i watched the seasons change and tell the world where it should go
"oh, the things you never know when you're alive"
so carry me away from here
i need something else to calm my fears
the world is spinning way too fast
where was i when all this added up to me?
i swore i'd never change
and i still feel the same
i am older than i once was, and even though the years are at my back
i felt wiser when i thought the world was flat
i found you in a fortress you built around yourself
to see would come and try to break it down to get you out
