lyrics

Woke up this morning to the sound of rain
Pulled myself together because I had to
Swam through people poured down in a storm
I did all of that for you

I dream in technicolour with such vivid detail
Sometimes I think I don’t want to wake up
Worlds unimaginable where I am not me
All that brings me back is love

Walking in circles around the weekdays
Weekends pausing to take a breath
The hours passing by like seconds
Time is getting less and less

Heavy in my heart I sink deeper
I realise fate I can’t escape
The choke of petrol fogging up concrete
In an amazing world a bleak landscape
And I trawl through the mundane
Reading of amazing sites
Curling myself into another dream
As the day turns out the light

How I want to touch every star
I want life to feel like it lasts
To scream into the sky and have it scream back
I am the new black; you are the new black
