The Verve Pipe – Colorful

Show is over close the story book
Will be no encore
All the random hands that I have shook
Well they're reaching for the door
I watch their backs as they leave single file
You stood stubborn, cheering all the while

I know I can be colorful
I know I can be gray
I know this loser's living fortunate
I know you will love me either way

Most were being good for goodness sake
But you wouldn't pantomime
You are more beautiful when you awake
Most are in a lifetime
Through the haze that is my memory well
Stayed for drama though you paid for [bad word] 
I know I can be colorful
I know I can be gray
I know this loser's living fortunate
I know you will love me either way

Look ahead as far as you can see
We'll live in drama but we'll die in [bad word] I know I can be colorful...
