Colours Fading

Wake up feeling like a
New day needs me
But the clock reads three
And I slump back into my bed

Motivation feeds
The hungry mind
So I guess starving tells me
Something I knew all along

Spend the day reflecting
My mistakes
In the end, it means nothing
If I can't pursue my dreams

Fall asleep into a
Darker place
Where my mind shuts off for the day
And recollects in peace

Lie awake while
The colours fade away
Truth is, I never changed
Black to white is still grey
Lie awake while
The colours fade

Living every day
Cast in shadow
Living in contempt
Rash and shallow

Colours splash violently
Aberrant, suddenly
Mask your eyes silently
From the truth, blissfully

Ignorance born from
Chained emotions
Weakness born from
Fear of false notions

Colours splash violently
Aberrant, suddenly
Mask your eyes silently
Colours fading

Lie awake while the colors fade away
The truth is, I never changed
Black to white is still grey
Lie awake while the colours fade

Living every day
Cast in shadow
Living in contempt
Rash and shallow

Colours splash violently
Aberrant, suddenly
Mask your eyes silently
From the truth, blissfully

Ignorance born from
Chained emotions
Weakness born from
Fear of false notions

Colours splash violently
Aberrant, suddenly
Mask your eyes silently
Colours fading
