Another Yellow Day

[Verse 1] I see it’s come along once again. My tried-and-true melancholy friend. The view all around me now has been tinted. Filled with a longing that's only been hinted. Everywhere I look it feels off by a step. I best not pursue what may become intense. The world that I see through this muted lens. Disconnected broken emotional sense. [Chorus] It is a yellow day. I know it right away. A feeling shapes my sight with faded amber light. Thoughts pour slow like molasses until this yellow passes. [Bridge] (Another yellow day) (Has come once more my way.) (Don't know what causes it.) (My world has been candle lit.) [Verse 2] It seems like a dream but I am wide awake. Surreal surroundings I know are not fake. Sometimes I appreciate this color shaded state. Embrace what I yearn Until the colors return. [Chorus] It is a yellow day. I know it right away. In comes a feeling to shape my sight. Everything's awash in a faded amber light. Thoughts pour slow like molasses, Until this blanket of yellow passes. [Outro] (Still unsure of what causes it.) (My world has been candle lit.) (Shadows of pastel gray.) (Cast beneath my yellow day.)
