Color
Finish Ticket Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hoping for a change
Running from the noise inside my brain, the stranger on my face
Something's gotta give
We're going through the motions, paralyzed; I'll freeze up every time

What the hell do I know? Looking for an answer
Learn from my mistakes; the cycle starts again
Amplify this feeling, a feeling I remember
On the edge of something, the edge of so

All my dealings are behind me
Everything was black and white inside
But I'm seeing color
We grow as we learn to let go
Pushing through the black and white
See in color

Outside of our skin
Waiting my whole life just to begin
Patient, but giving in
Still, I celebrate
Stronger with each scar and each scratch that I've collected

What the hell do I know? Looking for an answer
Learn from my mistakes; the cycle starts again
Amplify this feeling, a feeling I remember
On the edge of something, the edge of so

All my dealings are behind me
Everything was black and white inside
But I'm seeing color
We grow as we learn to let go
Pushing through the black and white
See in color

And I don't speak, speak my mind
I've been frequently behind
I've been blind in my reason and my cause
When we wanted to find what's been rolling out my mind
I've been lost in my reason and my cause

Everything was black and white inside
See in color
Everything was black and white inside, oh, oh
We grow as we learn to let go
Pushing through the black and white
See in color

(What the hell do I know?)
(Learn from my mistakes; the)
(Amplify this feeling)




(On the edge of something)
See in color
