I can't believe he said to me. It's as if my nightmare is coming true. But I don't want it to! I just want to curl up in a ball and cry myself to sleep and die while I slumber. Then maybe I could be happy for once.

I used to live in the darkness
Dress in black, act so heartless, but now
I see that colors are everything
Got kaleidoscopes in my hairdo
Got back the stars in my eyes, too, yeah now
I see the magic inside of me

Roman gave me all of these things. Now he's taken them all away. I want to die. I think if I stay like my old self again, I will kill myself.

Yeah, maybe my head's fucked up
But I'm falling right back in love with being alive
Dreaming in light, light, lights
This kitty cat lost her mind
Been looking for a star-sent sign that I'll be alright
Look to the skies

Why did he have to shove me back in my cage? Now I'm ready to die. He never even wanted to be with me! Why am I such a fuck up...

I've found a rainbow, rainbow, baby
Trust me, I know, life is scary
But just put those colors on, girl
Come and play along with me tonight

Roman used to be my rainbow. Now he's my depression, my darkness, my reason to not be alive.

I'd forgot how to daydream
So consumed with the wrong things, but in
The dark, I realized this life is short
And deep down, I'm still a child
Playful eyes, wide and wild, I can't
Lose hope, what's left of my heart's still made of gold

I'm still consumed with the wrong things. I don't remember how to daydream. I wish my life was shorter. And there is no gold left in my heart.

And I know that I'm still fucked up
But aren't we all, my love?
Darling, our scars make us who we are, are
So when the winds are howling strong
And you think you can't go on, hold tight, sweetheart

Our scars do make us who we are. I'm an ugly, hurting, mess. And the winds are howling strong and I can't go on. I think it's time to let go.

You'll find a rainbow, rainbow, baby
Trust me, I know life is scary
But just out those colors on, girl
Come and play along with me tonight
You gotta learn to let go, put the past behind you
Trust me, I know, the ghosts will try to find you
But just put those colors on, girl
Come and pain the world with me tonight
Night, night, night, night, night

Roman would've painted the world with me. He would've came and played with me. But every time I let the past go, it catches back up to me. And those colors...I've lost them. I can't paint the world tonight.

I found a rainbow, rainbow, baby
Trust me, I know life is scary
But just put those colors on, girl
You gotta learn to let go, put the past behind you
Trust me, I know, the ghosts will try to find you
But just put those colors on, girl
Come and pain the world with me tonight
Oh, put those colors on girl
Come and paint the world with me tonight

I can't come and paint the world with you tonight...

Come and paint the world with me tonight

Because tonight will be my last night.
