shades of you

lyrics

[Verse]

Life is a struggle to find,

Often blinded by the times

Lies become better sights

Than the real thing masked by the light.

The view from up here,

It's now crystal clear:

All saturated,

The colors ghosted,

Everything, except you.

[Chorus]

Jailed in a chromatic dreamscape,

I'd succumbed to this flashy rave,

Dazed, dazed, with no faint-hearted escape.

Then, discoball lights, pointed to

The mirrorball echoes of you.

All I could see through muted hues

Were reflections and shades of you.

[Verse]

Other colors didn't fade.

Yours just struck me in a way

Where everything else eroded

Next to your eye-catching float

In the parade.

No more technicolor lens,

Eyes grown exhausted.

It's all saturated,

The colors ghosted,

Everything, except you.

[Chorus]

Jailed in a chromatic dreamscape,

I'd succumbed to this flashy rave,

Dazed, dazed, with no faint-hearted escape.

Then, discoball lights, pointed to

The mirrorball echoes of you.

All I could see through muted hues

Were reflections and shades of you.

[Bridge]

Now that I see you,

What do I do?

Now that I see you

What do I do?

What do I do

When I only see you?

I only see you.

No more glints or illusory bull.

The rainbow tints' all bleaching through,

But the view's much more colorful

When it's saturated with you.

[Chorus]

Jailed in a chromatic dreamscape,

I'd succumbed to this flashy rave,

Dazed, dazed, with no faint-hearted escape.

Then, discoball lights, pointed to

The mirrorball echoes of you.

All I could see through muted hues

Were reflections and shades of you.

[Outro]

What do I do

When I only see you?

What do I do?

I don't know what to do,

But I only see you.

I can only see you.
