COLORS



English:

While worrying about the illusion
Reflected in the mirror,
Everything speeds up without notice

When they say I'm free to go wherever,
The guides for my incomplete desire
All turn grey.

The swaying flames
Are painting my dreams tonight
The tip of your brush
Isn't dried up yet?

If you can't see a blue sky, open up your blue umbrella.
Isn't that great? The canvas is yours.
A white flag is only raised when one has given up.
But now let it be crimson
Like the beckoning matador.

Under the discoloring florescent light
On the black and white of a chessboard
We met by chance

There was a time when we'd lost our way and held each other close
It's been a month since then. Do you remember?

I would have been happy just to have watched
The orange sunset next to you.
But the mouth (words) is the origin of catastrophe
Black clothes are only worn when
Praying for the deceased.
The mark of rouge leaves behind deep red purposely.

If you say you can only paint
Dreamless pictures
How many times must
I paint over the canvas?
A white flag is only raised
When you've given up
I'm a color you don't know now.
