Caligula’s Horse - Will’s Song (Let the Colours Run) lyrics

Find me I could chase the very sun There could be something left, a little piece of me Find me Out there, cast against the waves Your seven days of peace, and nothing left of me Find me Drown Face down in the water that’s meant for me Soon One more Isn’t this everything that you asked for? Drown No love for the living and empty lungs Soon Sing dead sons It’s lights out, give them something to live for You best run home boy Before you wear the weight You can run your mouth at every light That marks the way… You best run far boy With these old bones I could fill your lungs with the last of my breath So boy, you best run far I am the flame that lit the way You feed and grow by my will And time breeds only decay? Oh please, I am that young man still. Let the colours run, Lights out, give them something to live for Breathe while the waves rise, Fill my lungs, the sacred water Down, ever down, dive Will the weight to drag me under What I still needed to lead me, to save me Could have been someone, to the wind, soon Feed it, it’s fading to nothing, to ashes, Feed the beast! Never! To the wind! Feel it, it could be another triumph Giving in, over to the wind, soon Bring me the poison, to lead me, to save me Like a child, take me to the wind You best run home boy Before you wear the weight You can run your mouth at every light That marks the way… You best run far boy With these old bones I could fill your lungs with the last of my breath So boy, you best run far I am the flame that lit the way You feed and grow by my will And time breeds only decay? Oh please, I am that young man still Let the colours run Lights out, give them something to live for.
