Lyrics: Buehner
Music: BuehnerCookHahn
Go and find your resolution
Hide behind your grain of faith
Swim into your troubled waters
And I'm waiting for the sky to break free
From the sun
And I'm colorblind
And she breaks the cloud of silence
Let the darkness come of age
But she waits for Father's answer
And he waits for her to change
And I'm waiting for the sky to break free
From the sun
And I'm colorblind
Just a stone's throw from someday
And I'm right
And I'm colorblind
I can't see you
Through your black and blue cover
The rain is falling through the lens
Into the hands that gave up
Does not make the man
Go and fight your revolution .....
And I'm waiting for the sky to break free
From the sun
And I'm colorblind
Just a stone's throw from someday
And I'm right and I'm colorblind
I can't see you
Through your black and blue cover
The rain is falling through the lens
Into the hands that gave up
I feel alive again
I'm seeing red, I'm seeing red
I'm seeing red again
I'm seeing red again
I know she waited
I feel alive
I feel alive again
I know she waited
The lyrics of The Loyal Order's song "Colorblind" are full of powerful imagery and emotional depth. The song speaks to the idea that people often hide behind their beliefs and perceptions, unable to see the world as it truly is. The opening lines of the song encourage the listener to seek resolution, but caution that one's faith can also be a barrier.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "And I'm waiting for the sky to break free from the sun, and I'm colorblind." This line speaks to the longing for clarity and truth, a desire to break through the veil of illusion and see things for what they truly are. The use of the word "colorblind" is particularly striking, as it typically refers to an inability to see differences between colors. In this context, it suggests that the singer cannot see the differences that others may perceive, as if everything is the same to them.
The second verse introduces new characters, a father and daughter waiting for answers and change. The line "Let the darkness come of age" indicates that sometimes things must get worse before they can get better. The final lines of the song are more upbeat, with the singer feeling alive again and seeing red.
Overall, "Colorblind" is a thought-provoking song that encourages listeners to question their beliefs and see the world from a new perspective.
Line by Line Meaning
Go and find your resolution
Search for what you believe in
Hide behind your grain of faith
Use your faith to disguise your fears
Swim into your troubled waters
Confront your problems head on
And cry behind your painted face
Hide your true feelings with a façade
And I'm waiting for the sky to break free
From the sun
And I'm colorblind
I'm waiting for a change, but I can't see the obvious signs
And she breaks the cloud of silence
Let the darkness come of age
Someone speaks up and truth comes to light
But she waits for Father's answer
And he waits for her to change
Both parties involved in a conflict refuse to take action
Just a stone's throw from someday
And I'm right
And I'm colorblind
Success is within reach, but I can't see the path
I can't see you
Through your black and blue cover
I can't see the real you through your physical or emotional pain
The rain is falling through the lens
Into the hands that gave up
The hardships of life affect those who have lost hope
Does not make the man
Go and fight your revolution .....
Your current situation doesn't define you; fight for change
I feel alive again
I'm seeing red, I'm seeing red
I feel passionate and energized
I'm seeing red again
I know she waited
I realize someone was waiting for me to take action
I know she waited
Someone was patient with me
