Frightened Rabbit
"Living in Colour"

Living in colour, living in colour,
I can see the paint on your toes,
Living in colour
Even in the blackout, I know

I am floating, I, I am floating,
With my eyes closed, with no sails
I am soaking, I am weathered by the Winter of Mixed drinks

Am I dancing? Or am I simply just spinning in my own grave
You were asking, you were asking
and within two steps, I'm saved

Living in colour, living in colour,
I can see the paint on your toes,
Living in colour
Even in the blackout, I know

Weak strong bands, weak
I was paler than a pine box that holds bones
She poked the iris, then pierced a hole
and watched the colour rush forth

Modern madonna, oh held my hand in
warm hands, with pink nails
mock the man, whisper and the sickness will go away

Living in colour, living in colour,
I can see the paint on your toes,
Living in colour
Even as i blackout, I know

Though i dreamt with a rapid eye
By day i hope to rapidly die
And have my organs laid on ice
Gave to somebody thatll treat them right
And as the night started swallowing
You put the blood to my blue lips
Forced the life through still veins
Filled my heart with red again

Living in colour, living in colour,
I can see the paint on your toes,
Living in colour
Even in the blackout, I know

Living in colour, living in colour,
I can see the paint on your toes,
Living in colour
Even in the blackout, I know
