A 'Colourful' song

lyrics

© & ℗ 2013, 2015 Craig Hallen Music
Written by Craig Hallen

You’ve got so much to live for
Your spirit hasn’t died
They haven’t driven it from you
Even though God knows they’ve tried
I’ve seen you looking so lonesome
Like someone stole your home
But you’ve got a place inside you
No one else can ever own

So don’t fall victim
To this imperfect system
They don’t share the things you love
But you cannot give up
On your crimson

Like roses in the springtime
Or sunrise at Uluru
The worn-out face of the contender
Shows off that reddish-blue
Don’t let yourself be mislead
By imitations and lies
Amaranth and magenta
Are just a clever disguise

So don’t fall victim
To this imperfect system
They don’t share the things you love
But you cannot give up
On your crimson

We are born to survive
But no matter how hard we try
Lines in the sand will be
Blown away by winds of time

So don’t fall victim
To this imperfect system
They don’t share the things you love
But you cannot give up
On your crimson
Crimson
Your crimson
