Comatose Colorways

[Verse 1] Wake up, darling, it's a pixie-dust day Bright strings strum as the world's turning grey Pop a pill, they said, it'll iron your frown But look at you now, just another clown [Chorus] You don't see the chains while you're dancing You don't feel the rain when it's crashing [Verse 2] Grin wide, laugh it off, same stage, same play Mirror smiles on cue as the real you fades away Swallow hope, chase it down, lost in the sound March in line, beat by beat, 'til your truth is bound [Chorus] You spin with the stars but you're falling Whispering wishes, but who's calling? [Verse 3] Fake a smile, play the part, you're in their parade Puppet strings strung from the pills that you've swallowed today Your silhouette's dancing, but the colors are grey In the carnival of painted faces, where you're just a display [Chorus] You're laughing in the mirror, but you're fractured Singing freedom's tune while being captured Snap back, step in time, they say that you're prime Coated in a glossy sheen, life's a magazine Take a sip, join the crowd, dilute what's profound Another dose, the world's comatose, where silence is loud [Chorus] With every pill the colors fade more But hey, you're the life of the party, what's life for?
