For a century now I've been waiting With a photograph of life I'd painted Spent the last year contemplating just what it means to me Seperated fact from fiction now I can finally breathe Like a sentry guard I've been so patient With this photgraph of the world I'd painted It's colourless Humourless Hateful by degrees Towerin' over the days of sunshine It's just a part of me Now Salvadore's salivating Watching the clock and the time I've taken If he had it his way he'd go first And drink champagne and toast my thirst There is a reason why we'll step in front and raise my voice I can't Hold my tongue I pick myself up off the pavement With a photograph of time I'd painted I thought everyone of those pixelations Was a language I couldn't speak And all those years of remedial readin'
Had made a fool of me It was colourless Humourless Hateful by degrees See the more I learned The less I knew But now I can finally Finally breathe It was colourless Humourless Just a part of me Towerin' over the days of sunshine So I could hardly see It was colourless Humourless Hateful by degrees I thought everyone of those pixelations Was a language I couldn't Couldn't speak It was colourless Humourless An inconvenient part of me I seperated fact from fiction So that I could finally breathe It was colourless Humourless Hateful by degrees Towerin' over the days of sunshine So I could hardly see Colourless Humourless Just a part of me The more I learned The less I knew Now I can finally Finally breathe
