The Color of the Year (feat. Infinitefreefall) 02:27
lyrics
Beaming bright And resplendent It's the color of the year Make way for Radiant orchid That's the color of the year Was there a committee? Did they send out ballots? That healthy shade of purple Warms my cold heart Gleaming fair And effulgent It's the color of the year Emerald green Has been displaced as The true color of the year Why must Pantone play god With our color palette? Since when did they have a Monopoly? Lustrous fine And exciting It's the color of the year Everyone is in awe of the Color of 2014 Who can resist its charms? It is so inviting I am possessed by the Beauty of the Color of the year

lyrics
What's the difference between red and green? Do the sounds they make ever agree? Colorblindness is essentially innocuous But how can I tell if the light my eyes perceive Even exists? Blue pelagic waves roll over my skin Senses working overtime again A change of pitch is welcome any day But how can I tell if the light my eyes perceive Even exists? Anesthesia sets in much too quick Tones and hues cannot afflict Anything but the pain of absence But now I can see that the light my eyes perceive Doesn't exist

CMY2K (feat. everets) 02:03
lyrics
There are more bodies in California than i could count in a lifetime There are more colors than shapes to fill and more days than night times Rods and cones may seem like science but there's no truth in their alliance Everything you've ever seen is make-believe And everything you've ever been is the new chromaphilosophy It's going to Change the world And shoot the moon Create another dark, another day And you will get there soon There are more waves in the pacific ocean than i could ever take There are more hearts in lovers' minds than i could ever break Veins and lungs may seem like fun but when you have to live for everyone You'll know that Everything you've ever seen is make-believe And everything you've ever been is the new chromaphilosophy It's going to Change the world And shoot the moon Create another dark, another day And you will get there soon Without me
