Losing Color Lyrics

I'm losing the color, and you were my canvas
gone, get
when the pen hits the paper
I'm losing the color and you were my canvas
gone are the days when we laughed

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

im not reall sure what this song means. But i think its about a break up because they used to have romance, and the girl or guy was calm when they broke up and killed them both by doing it, and thier whole relationship was gone.

i dont think thats right but whatever, all together i love this song, its great.

In case anyone wants to know, what they're saying at the beginning goes like this. Daniel: "Can I - okay..." Michael: "I'm not encouraging this." Daniel: "How about this, Mike... how about I ask you some sort of question that I can then put on the computer, and make into an intro for the song?" Michael: "Okay." Daniel: "And then - and - but, the funny thing is the question's about the intro." Michael: "Okay, let's hear it." Daniel: "...That's it, that's the question. And then I start now."

Also, I believe the lyrics are more along these lines:

I'm losing the color And you will not care it's Gone (Caring)Gone

I'm losing the color And you will not care it's Gone Gone

The last of me will Last of me will Last of me will Last of me will Last of me at Last will fade away

I'm losing the color And you will not care it's Gone I'm losing Will you run?

Also, I just checked idiotfan.com, their lyrics seem most accurate:

I'm losing the color, and you were my canvas. Gone. Get.(x2) When the pen hits the paper(x6) I'm losing the color and you were the canvas. Gone are the days when we laughed.
