i used to live in the darkness
dress in black
act so heartless
but now i see that colors are everything
got kaleidoscopes in my hairdo
got back the stars in my eyes too
yeah now i see
the magic inside me
yeah maybe my head's fucked up
but i'm falling right back in love with being alive
dreaming in lights
this kitty cat lost her mind
been looking for a star-sent sign that i'll be alright
look to the skies
i've found a rainbow baby
trust me
i know life is scary
but just put those colors on girl
come and play along with me tonight
i'd forgot how to daydream
so consumed with the wrong things
but in the dark i realized this life is short
and deep down i'm still a child
playful eyes
wide and wild
i can't lose hope
what's left of my heart's still made of gold
and i know that i'm still fucked up
but aren't we all my love
darling
our scars make us who we are
so when the winds are howling strong
and you think you can't go on
hold tight sweetheart
you'll find a rainbow
baby trust me
i know life is scary
but just put those colors on girl
come and play along with me tonight
you gotta learn to let go
put the past behind you
trust me
i know the ghosts will try to find you
but just put those colors on girl
come and paint the world with me tonight
