Colors We Don't See

[Verse 1] There are colors in the sky We’ll never get to see Wavelengths that exist But they're not meant for you and me Like open doors we never tried Whole worlds that passed us by Open eyes, but we're all blind To all the things we left behind [Verse 2] There are people I passed by Who could’ve changed my life But I was staring at my phone Or thinking of a better time One shoe untied And I missed the train What if that’s when Everything could’ve changed? [Chorus] All the colors we’ll never see Still paint the edges of our dreams All the lives we never lived Just from holding back instead of giving in And maybe it’s haunting But maybe it’s true We spend our whole lives Missing what we never knew [Verse 3] There’s a silence in my chest Where a thousand songs could be But I keep humming the same one And calling it “my peace” All the moments I let slip Like whispers from my lips Nothing left to reminisce Just leave me waiting here like this [Pre-Chorus] And I ask myself If I even want to know What I’ve missed What I’ll never hold [Chorus] All the colors we’ll never see Still paint the edges of our dreams All the lives we never lived Just from holding back instead of giving in And maybe it’s haunting But maybe it’s true We spend our whole lives Missing what we never knew [Bridge] Is it grief, or just the shape of being alive? To mourn things That were never really mine To hold regrets Like faded photographs Of people I imagined But never met [Chorus] All the colors we’ll never see Still paint the edges of our dreams All the lives we never lived Just from holding back instead of giving in And maybe it’s haunting But maybe it’s true We spend our whole lives Missing what we never knew [Outro] So I paint with what I’ve got Even if it’s incomplete All the colors I’ll never see Still mean something to me
