[Verse 1] Under neon cut-outs, your silhouette fades, A black-and-white picture, soft and frayed. I reach for truth in the smoke, but it slips, Your secrets linger, tracing my lips. [Pre-Chorus] Ink on the page, blurred and gray, Your promises written, then washed away. I’m holding on to whispers, yet they drift, Each memory now just a ghostly—. (Ghostly shift) [Chorus] Say you’re mine—soft, like a prayer, The film fades, colors appear. The lies seep through, paint me blue, In shades, in hues—of you. Say you’re mine Or paint me Paint me blue In shades, in hues— of you, [Verse 2] Lost in the streets, where our past lies, Every glance a puzzle, every touch disguised. I saw you in silver, I saw you in light, But truth bleeds in, turns grey to sight. (Bleeding red) Color me a picture I’m forced to endure [Pre-Chorus] I missed each sign, in black and white, The canvas darkened, fading sight. I searched for us, on greyscale pews A love in color I’d never known. [Chorus] Say you’re mine, and then disappear, The colors bleed, what once was clear. I reach for warmth, but fall through— In shades, in hues—of you. Tell me Tell me you’re mine Then (disappear) [Bridge] Now the mysterious greys seep to blues, The lines bleed in reds, With every secret, you slip away. I see the truth in soft decay, All your shades bleeding to color, lost in disarray. [Final Chorus] Tell me lies in muted blue, Every stroke revealing you. This story fades as colors flood, Love turned to dust, and painted blood. Color me a picture I’m forced to endure I missed each sign (in black in white) Color me a picture…. Say your mine
