Colors
Tritonal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Saw them dancing in your eyes
Like shadows in the night
Doing pirouettes around the stars
We were running in a haze
I remember every shade
Hit my veins and they shot up sparks

Words fell from your lips
And all I heard was white noise in the dark
But when you looked away
I remember every shade

So let your colors run tonight
We’re painting in the dark
Let your colors run tonight
The colors of your heart
Let your colors run tonight
We’re painting in the dark
Let your colors run tonight
The colors of your heart

Saw them dancing in your eyes
Like shadows in the night
Doing pirouettes around the stars
We were running in a haze
I remember every shade
Hit my veins and they shot up sparks

Words fell from your lips
And all I heard was white noise in the dark
But when you looked away
I remember every shade

So let your colors run tonight
We’re painting in the dark
Let your colors run tonight
The colors of your heart
Let your colors run tonight
We’re painting in the dark
Let your colors run tonight
The colors of your heart





The colors of your heart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tritonal's song "Colors" explores the theme of intense emotions and the power of visual imagery to convey feelings. The song paints a picture of two people caught in a moment of intense passion, where they are so close to each other that they can see the emotions dancing in each other's eyes. The metaphor of "shadows in the night" and "pirouettes around the stars" create a striking visual that conveys the intensity of the emotions that the two share.


The lyrics also reveal an element of confusion and uncertainty in the relationship. The line "Words fell from your lips, and all I heard was white noise in the dark" suggests that the singer is struggling to understand what the other person is saying, which creates a sense of uncertainty and anxiety. Despite this confusion, the singer is still deeply affected by the other person's emotions, as shown by the line "hit my veins and they shot up sparks".


The chorus of the song expresses a desire to embrace the intensity of the relationship and embrace the range of emotions that the two share. The metaphor of "painting in the dark" suggests that the emotions that are being expressed may not be fully understood or even visible, but that they are still worth exploring and embracing. The chorus is a call to action, urging the other person to let their "colors run tonight", and to share the "colors of your heart".


Overall, Tritonal's "Colors" is a powerful exploration of intense emotions and the power of visual imagery to convey feelings. The song captures the intense passion and confusion that can arise in a close relationship, while also expressing a desire to embrace and explore the range of emotions that are being felt.


Line by Line Meaning

Saw them dancing in your eyes
I saw the emotions and feelings that you were keeping inside through the way your eyes were moving and shining


Like shadows in the night
The movements of your eyes were subtle and fleeting, like shadows in the darkness


Doing pirouettes around the stars
Your emotions were like ballerinas, gracefully and elegantly moving around the constellations


We were running in a haze
We were moving through life in a blur, not knowing where we were going or what we were doing


I remember every shade
Even though everything was a haze, I still remember each and every detail of our journey together


Hit my veins and they shot up sparks
The emotions and feelings that I felt from you were so intense that they felt like an electric shock running through my body


Words fell from your lips
You spoke to me and shared your feelings with me


And all I heard was white noise in the dark
Although I heard your words, they were drowned out by my own thoughts and feelings, making it hard to truly listen


But when you looked away
When you turned your attention away from me


I remember every shade
I still remember every detail of our time together, even when it seemed like you were no longer present


So let your colors run tonight
Let your true emotions and feelings show without fear or restraint


We’re painting in the dark
We're expressing ourselves in a way that might not be obvious to others, but is meaningful to us


The colors of your heart
The deeply personal and unique emotions and feelings that come from within you
