I keep the summer in a frame, forget the fall outside That's how I make a living I keep on running my own game, I let no one inside This is where I'm driven You know nothing about my aim, you know nothing at all And that's the reason why I'm hiding Sometimes I can feel afraid, but I was told to let nothing on And anyway, I'm too old to be crying An maybe I'm just being too sensitive But things can seem overly intensive Withdrawn life, yelling world Yellow me No, I ain't expecting nothing of anybody else But too much of myself And I've managed to hold on the past two years Holding back forbidden tears and hidden fears I watch the sunset from my bed
I watch the sun come up again, and that's what makes me older My only friend is at the end of the world The girl is just like me, and that's the reason I never call her An maybe I'm just being too sensitive But things can get overly intensive Withdrawn life, yellow sun Well, old me Yellow me And I'm too scared to seattle down I can't find the nerve to find my place in this forgotten town Your voice on the line again asking how I'm doing That's a tough question I guess we're getting to an end An maybe I'm just being too sensitive Or you were born overly intensive Withdrawn life, jealous man Yellow me Yellow me Yellow me...
