kaleidoscope

lyrics

[Verse]

In dreamscapes and flashing lights,

Where’s the next party tonight?

Where’re the next inviting eyes

To capture under the low light,

Who’ll stay long past the sunrise?

Where can I go, where it’s all bright?

[Chorus]

Take me to the highest peak

To see all that there is to see,

In shades of yellows, oranges, and greens,

Show me the way a kaleidoscope sees.

Show me the midnight skies and rainbow lights,

All these magnetic fields and social highs.

With no one looking for me.

Eyes peeking from the past,

What's the point of all that

When I'm happy here as I am?

[Verse]

Each day, I awake in a haze

Surrounded by monochrome grays,

Itching to get on with my days.

So what if I’m a niffler,

Attracted to the glimmers?

Who cares about all the flickers?

[Chorus]

Take me to the highest peak

To see all that there is to see,

In shades of yellows, oranges, and greens,

Show me the way a kaleidoscope sees.

Show me the midnight skies and rainbow lights,

All these magnetic fields and social highs.

With no one looking for me.

Haunting words from a distant wind,

What’s the point of dwelling sins

When this is all I need to win?

[Bridge]

It’s all flashing inside

This kaleidoscope’s eye,

The world’s tinted glow,

A technicolor show.

What do they know?

So what if my skin’s molded

To this ocular piece?

What is even the point

Of trying to break free?

When I have everything

Here I could want to see?

What do they know?

This is home.

What do they know?

Kaleidoscope.

What do they know?

[Chorus]

Take me to the highest peak

To see all that there is to see,

In shades of yellows, oranges, and greens,

Show me the way a kaleidoscope sees.

Show me the midnight skies and rainbow lights,

Show me the magnetic fields and social highs.

[Outro]

What do they know?

Kaleidoscope.

What do they know?

Kaleidoscope.

They don't know.

They don't know.

This is home.

Show me the point of history

When this is all I'll ever need.
