A Lack of Color

And when I see you

I really see you upside-down

But my brain knows better

It picks you up and turns you around

Turns you around

Turns you around

If you feel discouraged

When there's a lack of color here

Please don't worry, lover

It's really bursting at the seams

From absorbing everything

The spectrum's A to Z

This is fact not fiction

For the first time in years

And all the girls in every girly magazine

Can't make me feel any less alone

I'm reaching for the phone

To call at 7:03

And on your machine, I slur a plea for you to come home

But I know it's too late

And I should have given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

This is fact not fiction

For the first time in years
