Colour Fade
Funeral Suits Lyrics

To bleed like a flower
To be vulnerable and open like a flower bleeding its color

On the side of the road
In a place where one is exposed and vulnerable to others passing by

I want the eyes of academy
I desire the knowledge and understanding of those who are well-educated and experienced

To sink in the courage
To fully immerse oneself in bravery and strength

Of a man and his boat
Like a man who takes on the sea in his boat, facing challenges head-on

I'd need to leaf through eternity
I would require an infinite amount of time to fully comprehend and understand everything

To hold up the holly, yeah
To lift and carry something that is significant and symbolic, like holly

To sit under the trees, you know
To be at peace and find respite in nature

To drill into my lobes
To dig deep into one's mind and thoughts

And hang the shards of our regards
To display the broken and fragmented pieces of a relationship or connection

I'd have a meal put in front of me
I would feel satisfied and content with what I have, rather than always striving for more

Teach me how to feel
Help me understand how to truly experience emotions

And how to scream and recreate
Teach me how to express and release my thoughts and feelings in a healthy way

If I could swarm in the victorious
If I could surround myself with triumph and success

I'd blow into the wind
I would let go of control and allow the natural forces to guide me

And feel the colour kicking in
Experience a burst of excitement and passion

I need that sellable stretchable coat
I require something versatile and adaptable to help me navigate different situations

To stand and draw my sword
To prepare for battle and defend oneself

And cut me in to wage a war
To sacrifice oneself in order to fight for something important

To shed my skin on the timber shade
To let go of one's old self and embrace change and growth

To pull it all apart
To break down something that was once whole

And dance in circles 'round the start
To continually revisit the beginning and find new meaning in it through movement and exploration

Toward the eyes, wipe the prize away
To face the truth and let go of false illusions and material possessions

Through the ghosts of fire, we flow
We pass through difficult situations and experiences, enduring like the remnants of a fire

Over hills and highs, we know
Despite struggle, we continue onward and upward

Hold me now, hold me now, ohhh
Seeking comfort and support in someone else

To blame it on the stars
To attribute problems or issues to external circumstances rather than taking responsibility

Is not to blink to mirror sin
Ignoring one's own faults and flaws will not solve problems or lead to growth

To know that they'll never fade away
To understand that certain experiences or emotions will always remain with us

To breathe upon the glass
To create art or expression through breath and air

And trace the hole that I fell in
To revisit and understand past mistakes or difficult times in order to move forward

I feel the particles accumulate
I sense how small actions and choices build up and contribute to larger outcomes

What are we gonna do?
Asking a rhetorical question about uncertain or difficult situations

What are we gonna say?
Asking a rhetorical question about communication and expression in uncertain situations

And I'm a machine
Acknowledging robotic or automated behavior

That sends the colour to your head
Capable of inspiring vivid and intense emotions

That sends the colour to your heart
Effectively conveying deep and meaningful emotions
