I know it's wrong
|
I know it's selfish
|
YOU'VE SUCH A SHORT LIFE
|
You've so little time
|
You know this pattern
|
Patchwork of any direction
|
Cobbled together
|
In odd shape and size
|
Take my hand, we'll walk through this together
|
But my hand gets sweaty
|
You somehow slip away
|
Try to call you, but I don't call too loud, no
|
Try to love, and never look that hard
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
Cos this blue's a swirling ocean
|
The green, the ambition
|
The red is the guilt
|
There's a lot of red
|
I know it's wrong
|
I know it's selfish
|
Such a short life
|
So little time
|
Try to call you, but I don't call too loud, no
|
Try to love, but never look that hard
|
(Chorus)
|
|
The yellow is my sunshine
|
Comes out on odd occasion
|
Barely enough to keep you around
|
