Colors...

Black. The ultimate of darkness, of deep places wherein things are often lost and never found again. And before the Black field is White. Soft, gentle White. Smooth, like cream. The epitome of an empty page, a blank space to be claimed, for something to be created, to be found. Things are not lost on White. And on the White span is Red. Thick, rich, full of unspeakable things, good things and bad things. Red is pain, or anger, or sorrow, or shame. Red is guilt and fear. Red floods over White, covering it's clean purity with imperfection, revealing it's weakness, it's ability to be overrun. Red drips from White into Black, where it is lost, for nothing can overcome Black. Black is strong. Black shows no contrast against it, save White, and White succumbs to all colors. Black never succumbs. Black is forever. Even Red must give way to Black.

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and theyre all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens evry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then Ill fade away and not have to face the facts
Its not easy facin up when your whole world is black
