Blue Lips (Regina Spektor)

He stumbled into faith and thought,

God this is all there is.

The pictures in his mind arose.

And began to breathe.

And all the gods in all the worlds.

Began colliding on a backdrop of blue.

Blue lips.

Blue veins.

He took a step but then felt tired.

He said, I'll rest a little while.

But when he tried to walk again.

He wasn't a child.

And all the people hurried past.

Real fast and no one ever smiled.

Blue lips.

Blue veins.

Blue, the colour of the planet from far, far away.

He stumbled into faith and thought,

God this is all there is.

The pictures in his mind arose.

And began to breathe.

And no one saw and no one heard.

They just followed lead.

The pictures in his mind awoke.

And began to breed.

They started off beneath the knowledge tree.

Then they chopped it down to make white picket finches.

They marched along the railroad tracks.

And smiled real wide for camera lenses.

They made it past the enemy lines.

Just to become enslaved in the assembly lines.

Blue lips.

Blue veins.

Blue, the colour of the planet from far, far away.

Blue lips.

Blue veins.

Blue, the colour of the planet from far, far away.

Blue, the most human colour.

Blue, the most human colour.

Blue, the most human colour.

Blue lips.

Blue veins.

Blue, the colour of our planet from far, far away.
