Color Me

Orange like the sunrise we watched in Barcelona That one hot summer mornin’ Red like the pretty roses you gave me On our one year anniversary White like my skintight wedding dress You said it was oh so classic So color me impressed With the pink lipstick on your neck That isn’t mine... And color me impressed With your boring purple tie That she likes… Did you think I wouldn’t find out After all, you took the color out my life Now everything feels black and white So color me impressed. Blue like the realistic fake tears you cried When I threw you out of my life Green the true epitome of jealousy When I was crying out in envy Red the only the color that I’m seeing Afterall I want you dead darling So color me impressed With the pink lipstick on your neck That isn’t mine... And color me impressed With your boring purple tie That she likes… Did you think I wouldn’t find out After all, you took the color out my life Now everything feels black and white So color me impressed. Now the world seems so gray Lifeless...colorless… Now the world lacks beauty Lifeless...colorless
