Untitled (Colour is size)

Verse 1
Colour is size, size is everything
Take a number and get in line
The glory you possess is in high demand
And you'll share it with all who are intrigued
An undeniable wonder of the world
To look at, to hold, and to have
A snake and a dove rolled into one package
Lay it on thick and be unrelenting

Verse 2
Many don't give a damn about your ageless plight
Your concerns are ignored
Blending in is what you're expected to do
Although you're failing
You reject your innate capabilities
And subscribe to nonsensical dogma
A half-being kneeling before the mighty
Begging for scraps and for sympathy
If only you knew your origins and purpose
The world as we know it would be forever changed

Verse 3
Without justice, there's no peace of mind
Unscramble your brains and reclaim yourself
Being a clown won't get you far away
From the distractions and pitfalls which surround you
When you're presented with playing by the rules or taking short-cuts
Choose wisely
Moments reverberate beyond breath and sound
Like a roller coaster, they keep pushing forward

Chorus
A spectrum, a state of mind, a group
You're the master and it's the subject
An institution to maintain and to destroy
You're the challenger of bodies and minds
