No Color - Otep

I remember black mascara painting your face

I remember dark sunglasses when clouds were grey

Remember silence

Remember tears

Remember still

I remember black cars pulling up to take you away

The smell of the fall and the endless rain

Remember shivers

Remember cold

Remember still

Now I hesitate

Levitate between memories

Elevate was it hate

That got through to me

My mistake was it fate that brought you to me

Now I’m losing

Why can’t I see any color at all

When I dream about those days

How did I let these images drain away

When all I do is suffer

No color!

Why can’t I see any color at all

Why can’t I see any color at all

Why can’t I see any color at all

No color!

I remember black clouds blooming

As I shouldered the blame

The gun metal grey on that trembling day

Remember thunder

Remember fear

Remember still

I remember biting my lip to stifle a laugh

I tried to say your name

But all that came out was a whisper

«Hell is empty the devil’s here»

Now you disintegrate

Levitate into memory

Elevate was it hate that got you to see

My mistake it was fate that brought you to me

Now I’m losing

I think I thought but I forgot

I think I think too much

I have a problem for every answer

Striking at the ocean with a broken hammer

I think I think too much

I think I think too much

No color

We can break apart like stars

And throw ourselves against the sky
