Beige

lyrics

Everything is one color now
I think my eyes deceive me somehow
But I get the feeling that I’ll never get it back
That whole rainbow color pack

In the deep bite of January
There’s a hard longing for the spring
No blue sky to make me free
No blue sky following

All the lights out in our home
Now its a faded shut down monochrome 
Pull the shoes back onto my feet
Hit the neon lit late night back streets

It’s that same old melody
That comes around haunting me
On a beige stool at the bar’s back
Have I moved on or do I hold back?

Everything is one color now
As dawn breaks in København
And I get the feeling that I’m slowing down
As the trucks speed right out of town
But soon the blue sky gonna set me free
Soon the blue sky’s gonna set me free
