Color (Ten Times Faded)

Verse1
I'm blue
the one and only Color
that you never thought I'd be
I see you
in what you think is Heaven
Heaven is happiness for me
why don't you want me

Bridge1
Don't push me
if you're gonna do this to me
then I don't wanna be around

Verse2
I'm red
in the face
for every time you make me mad enough I can't see
in your arms
is where I'd like to be
makin' you believe
you're gettin' it all

Bridge2
Don't push me around
don't mess with me
you already turned my world up side down

Chorus
My Color
is fading away
my mind
has been blown away
my heart
I just can't say
I wish you'd stay
my Color
is Ten Times Faded
it's Ten Times Faded
it's Ten Times Faded away

Verse3
I'm white
yeah light as the day
when you hate me even more
I won't let you throw it all away
to your delight
I'm not goin' outta my way
get outta here
get outta my way

Repeat Bridge1 and Chorus

(solo)

Verse4
I'm black
as the night
you bring out the darkness in me
behind your back
is where you'll always see me
watchin' you every step of the way
tellin' you to back off 
get away
don't turn around
'cause you're afraid of me

Repeat Bridge2 and Chorus

Author's Notes/Comments: 

"Color (Ten Times Faded)" is about the fact that women make me angry as all get out at times. I used to be all for revenge. Now I walk away from them. In other words if you have drama. Don't bring it to me.
