Mainland - Outcast

PRIMARY COLORS

For whatever you find
In the dead of the night
In the art of the fight
In your flight from this life

Your face it still glows
The color of rose
‘neath storm-cloud filled eyes
Thorns they do prick
But blood it runs thick
Don’t it fasten our ties?

These walls they don’t speak
But they hear much from me
When I rage in confide
I unmade my bed 
In my restless dreaming
But I made up my mind

For whatever you find
In the dead of the night
In the art of the fight
In your flight from this life
For whatever you lose
When you’re willing to choose
The wrong from the right

My hands they’re still covered
With all of the colors
I mixed
In my joys and my sorrows
Yellow 
are the sunflowers
Refusing to grow
So red 
I fought the voices in my head
Until my knuckles bled
Blue 
is the moonlight
On my unmade bed
Where only dust resides
Where only dust resides

For whatever you find
In the dead of the night
In the art of the fight
In your flight from this life
For whatever you lose
When you’re willing to choose
The wrong from the right

Out of the black and the briars
Comes a bird that aspires
To free itself from the wires
From the fools from the liars
from the thieves and the crooks
From the sellers and the buyers
From the numbers and the books
From the hours and the glass
From the future and the past
From the players and the game
From the baggage and the claim

Oh, what a shame it is
To see you this way
It’s not what you took, babe
No
It’s what you gave

And you ought to know
I am the rock 
I am the roll
And I am free of your control
