I started singing when I understood that I
I was different from the boys and girls, when life
Was so simple and we banged our heads to the music on tv

I see in different colours now
Still young, still weird but somehow
Somehow I found my stride through the wasted years
And your wasted lies
I see in different colours now

And as the world turns
You’ve been missing every sign
Running colour blind
And as the world turns
I’ve been gaining peace of mind

Take me by surprise; show me what it feels like
I found a reason, a reason
It wouldn’t be the first time caught between your dead eyes.
I found a reason, a reason to prove
It takes a special kind of person
To come out of this place with a purpose
It takes a special kind of person
I see in different colours now

And as the world turns
You’ve been missing every sign
Running colour blind
And as the world turns
I’ve been gaining peace of mind

I see in different colours now
What you don’t know is what I can’t show
I won’t explain how I made something from nothing
I’m better than nothing

And as the world turns
You’ve been missing every sign
Running colour blind
And as the world turns
I’ve been gaining peace of mind
And as the world turns
I’ve been gaining peace of mind
