I take a look inside my body
My heart is red my bones are white
I take a look inside my pupils
And all I ever see is night
I take a look and I see brown
Within my eyes, within my hair
I take a look upon my skin
And yet I see no yellow there
They told me yellow was the colour
That shows the happiness within
And yet no yellow is inside
And there's no yellow on my skin
I search and seek but there's no yellow
Like the gently warming sun
It's the colour of acceptance
It's the colour of all fun
Van Gogh has swallowed yellow paint
To bring the happiness inside
He was aware of all the dangers
But he set all of that aside
I crave the medicine he wanted
And I am losing all restraint
And there's a thing that I have realised:
It turns out you're my yellow paint.
There is happiness and warmth,
You're such a pretty yellow hue
While I have searched inside my body
The colour yellow was in you
But that pretty little colour
Only acts kindly to the eye
And if it ever gets inside me
It is quite likely I will die
But it's too late. I've breathed you in
And you are now inside my mind
I have consumed your very essence
It turns out you're no longer kind
Your toxic touch is always present
In every little thing I do
And you are now within my heart
And all I ever think is you
It turns out yellow is no colour
That shows the happiness inside
It turns out yellow is a venom
And you're a snake that likes to bite.
