Discoloured

I've been watching you Change by the hour Turning into something new Just to survive I'm terrified

I can see confusion forming in your mind I can see you tripping in and out of time

Your shape is shifting All contorted Cracked and vile In disbelief I close my eyes Long enough So I don't see the shame again Of everything

Disconnect Me Pull the power Shut me off and cur the wires Deep enough So I don't feel the pain again

I've been watching you When there's no disguise I've been watching you A vision I can't describe It's discoloured

I've been watching you Lost in the wire Thinking I was something you Kept in your mind Your idle mind Let me take you with me On a little twist I love it when you're tripping In and out of space

If you want to keep pretending Boys don't cry Just surrender, cry aloud Loud enough so I don't feel The pain again of every man

Disconnect me Pull the power Shut me off and cut the wire Or climb across so we can share The shame again

'Cos I've been watching you (Livin' in a world) On a razors edge I've been watching you (on the other side) From beyond the lens

It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens

If god is in the lens Is it faith that he demands we give Can't he see the world we live and breathe Is discoloured

Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens It's discoloured Your world beyond the lens
