The Colored Night Lyrics by Blind Pilot

We Are the Tide

2011

I was in between
I was an offering
I was a burning branch
Close to feeling tall
Almost a free fall
I was made of chance
And when the colors bleed
Mix up my memories
When I write it new
I'll just be a sound you heard
I'll be a foreign word
That's meaning your type of blue
And I'll leave that here with you
Oh, our lines will blur
But you've got a face like no other
I'll keep it where I see things right
Oh, a darkness comes
But you've got a way like no other one
I'll keep it where my black keeps light
Make me a mirror of
All that I cannot love
Let me hold the cast
Of my favorite years
The truth how they gave me here
And let that be last
Let that be my last
Oh, our lines will blur
But you've got a face like no other
I'll keep it where I see things right
Oh, a darkness comes
But you've got a way like no other one
I'll keep it where my black keeps light
In a darkness I do not know
If it takes me, I'll feel you glow
In a darkness I do not know
Oh, our lines will blur
But you've got a face like no other
I'll keep it where I see things right
Oh, a darkness comes
But you've got a way like no other one
I'll keep it where my black keeps light
