Joseph McQueen and A Tragedy In Progress - Our Colors lyrics

First a number, then a name Then for the rest of your life it's the same thing Lay your hands on me, let me receive If we could only see the world through Jonas' eyes Our colors would erase the emptiness inside If we could only see the world through Jonas' eyes Allow ourselves to feel the things we've learned to hide Watching and waiting Assigning each a rating How have they chosen me? Successor to a mentor I'm not sure what I'm in for Let's start, first memory Lay your hands on me - and let me receive! If we could only see the world through Jonas' eyes Our colors would erase the emptiness inside If we could only see the world through Jonas' eyes Allow ourselves to feel the things we've learned to hide Showing me beauty, knowing to save the misery Quit sparing me In this town, emotions Run dry, they've never felt anything Do you think we can set them free? My absence is the only way You'll find your peace I've found release First a number, then a name Then for the rest of your life it's the same thing Lay your hands on me - and let me receive!
