Tried and Twisted - a Love of Toxic Color

TRIED AND TWISTED – A LOVE OF TOXIC COLOR Tried twisted lover, are you dying for a kiss? Harmony is crawling Looking for slivers of forever bliss I agree, it’s hard, it’s not just you, go on We have to move on Let it out don’t cringe at the colors It’s the same on the other side of the canvas Tried and twisted colors, which ones do you want me to mix? Waiting on the moment the palm trees will sing They want to bend and brush the foam that’s Sucking, blowing, inhaling and listening for the Toxicity of your colors as they run Tired and restless lover, your love is sweetening the taste of life You left the sugar on my tongue You wanted to touch it, but life wore on ___________________________ Every morning they rose and left the colors in their wake Racing off to the monochrome of some tried and twisted fate They rolled towards the colors, towards forever and all of their past lovers Hot heels and corduroy, broken bounds and hair ties found Blink, blink, she kicked the door in Now she’s crying in the sand mixing her toxic colors with her hand Star-ridden and her clothes teach her lessons Scent of lucky and hardly a trend to begin Anew, another tried twisted toxic lover
