My colors don't shine as brightly
They're almost gone
My outline fades
Before you notice
And outline me again
Only to be erased
I blur along the edges
The shadows pull at me
Let them take me away
I'll soon disappear completely
I'm already half gone
I don't want to live in a world without color
I've never called out to you
I don't want to be outlined again
I don't want to stand apart
Let the waves of the ocean blend into me
Let them make me their own
Just let me go
It'll be easier that way
I'll be free
You'll be free
It's a win-win
I won't be in your way
Only my memory will survive this
Nothing else
My colors are dull
Let them turn to black
You can't take me with you everywhere
Let me go
Let me fade
