I Used To Dream In Color

Well I got here by boat and I don't intend to stay
 The town clerk's black coat is already turning grey
 And I look out and I doubt
 I've been here one day and already things feel cruel
 An old lady's cursing at somebody next to you
 And I look out and I shout
 Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
 I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
 I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
 I look out and I don't want to see any more
 The people are trained in hate, sending guns to kill
 Already we're forgetting what we were put here to do
 I look out and I cry
 And trees are falling at no man's expense
 Greed, jealousy
 I look out and I shout
 Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
 I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
 I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
 I look out and I don't want to see any more
 An empathy forgotten with no man's greys
 I can't recall the last time I saw a true face
 I look out and I die
 Words are bombs, bombs are words
 I miss the oblivion of being a young girl
 I look out, I shout
 Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view
 I used to dream in colors, now I dream in blues
 I look out, this town felt so gold from the shores
 I look out and I don't want to see any more
 I look out and I don't want to see any more
