The Color Of You

What if you could fly?
Or swim in the sea?
What if you were whole again?
What if you were free?

What if the grey skies suddenly turn blue?
If truth is obsidian...
Then what colour are you?

There's this look in your eyes
Sometimes you seem so far away
And no matter what I do
I can't make you
Look at me any other way

And I've heard all those words before
When you tell me everything's fine
And what's familiar to you
Is because it's true
I've had the same look in mine

And what if you could fly?
Or swim in the sea?
What if you were whole again?
What if you were free?

What if the grey skies suddenly turn blue?
I think that you know that they always do

Would you lie to the world?
Because they don't know you
But the sea and the sky
They both know what's true

And what if you look around and you haven't got a clue?
If truth is obsidian...
What colour are you?

There's a beat to your heart
Sometimes you don't know what to feel
And if the sea obeys you
Then what you can do
Is start to learn how to heal

And I think that I understand
Afraid that you might have felt this before
But when there's stars above you
And ocean too
Then you won't have to hurt anymore

But what if you could fly?
Or swim in the sea?
What if you were whole again?
What if you were free?

What if the grey skies suddenly turn blue?
I think that you know that they always do

Would you lie to the world?
Because they don't know you
But the sea and the sky
They both know what's true

And what if you look around and you haven't got a clue?
But truth is obsidian...
So, what colour are you?

And when you dive through a wave
All the world starts to fade
Let the green swirl around you
While everything turns grey

But it just takes one breath
Like a close brush with certain death
Those who wait will find the way through

But what if you could fly?
Or swim in the sea?
What if you were whole again?
What if you were hap-py?

What if the grey skies suddenly turn blue?
I think that you know that they always do

Would you lie to the world?
Because they don't know you
But the sea and the sky
They both know what's true

And what if you look around and you haven't got a clue?
But truth is obsidian...

What if you fly high?
Or swim deep in the sea?
What if you let go of him?
What if you break free?

What if the clear skies still make you feel blue?
All the friends that you know, they will help you pull through

Would you lie to the world?
Because you don't know what's true
Just turn up the radio
And let the truth find you

I don't have all the answers, how about you?
Because truth is obsidian...
And that's the colour of you
