Where once I saw only black and white a rainbow of colors sprouts now
Spiraling around my frame, I open my eyes to see clearly
Tired of walking in the shadows, I let them crawl across my skin
As I recall them one at a time, resurrect the memory within
With the gentle kiss of a razor blade, I show you the color I painted my sky
Not at all black or grey, not even the slightest hint of blue
I painted it in vermillion, the most familar shade of mortality
Perhaps out of the feebleness of a depressed mind to grasp
That my beloved vermillon is the color of love too.
A twisted sort of duality, perhaps a symbol not meant to be understood
Yet it seems appropriate that I painted the sky with my blood
