I Used To Dream In Colour

Well I got here by boat and I don't intend to stay
The town clerk's black coat is already turning grey
And I look out and I doubt
I've been here one day and already things feel cruel
An old lady's cursing at somebody next to you
And I look out and I shout
Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
I look out and I don't want to see any more
The people are trained in hate, sending guns to kill
Already we're forgetting what we were put here to do
I look out and I cry
And trees are falling at no man's expense
Greed, jealousy
I look out and I shout
Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
I look out and I don't want to see any more
An empathy forgotten with no man's greys
I can't recall the last time I saw a true face
I look out and I die
Words are bombs, bombs are words
I miss the oblivion of being a young girl
I look out, I shout
Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
I look out and I don't want to see any more
I look out and I don't want to see any more
