Johanna Warren – True Colours lyrics
I walked into the jaws of the lion
She stalked under the belt of Orion
We caught and disemboweled our disembodied prey
She shot like a bottle rocket into the fray

I crawled into the mouth of the river
She called; her silver voices made me shiver
We spoke; I posed, she painted my reflection
I awoke without the faintest recollection

Wherever you are, you'll never get where you're going
If you're wound so tight

Forget the duality of wrong and right

Wherever you are, you'll never get out alive
If you got no light
You can't see your true colors in black and white

I fell into the arms of my father
He knelt to kiss the shadow of his daughter
I heard she, having taken quite a beating
Found words true enough to bear repeating
