Color Blind ( V.2 )



Color Blind, a world without hue
A canvas of white, a canvas of blue
No vibrant reds, no sunny yellows
Just endless shades of gray and shadows
No rainbows to brighten the sky
No flowers to catch your eye
Just a constant, colorless scene
A world that's lost its gleam
Color Blind, nature's lost its charm
No more greens to keep us calm
The leaves are fading, the grass is dull
A world without color, oh what a lull
No golden sunsets, no ocean blues
Just a monochromatic view
No more stars to twinkle at night
In this world, there's no such sight
Color Blind, emotions are drained
No more rainbows when it rains
No red for anger, no pink for love
A world without color, it's just not enough
No more yellow for a cheerful smile
No more purple to stay for a while
A world in shades of gray
It's hard to keep the gloom at bay
Color Blind, the city streets
No more neon lights to greet
No more advertisements that catch the eye
Just a dull, colorless sky
No more graffiti on the walls
No more vibrant, bustling malls
A world without color, it's lost its spark
It's like living in the dark
Color Blind, our clothes are plain
No more fashion, no more vain
No more bright and bold designs
Just plain and simple, like our minds
No more yellow for a sunny dress
No more blues for a royal mess
A world without color, it's just so bland
It's hard to even understand
Color Blind, children's toys
No more colors to bring them joys
No more bright and playful things
Just a lifeless world, it stings
No more red for a fire truck
No more pink for a little girl's luck
A world without color, it's just so sad
It's like all the colors have gone mad
Color Blind, our memories fade
No more pictures to be saved
No more colorful snapshots in mind
Just a colorless past, left behind
No more yellow for a summer day
No more greens for a walk in the parkway
A world without color, it's just so bleak
It's like we're living in a dreamless sleep
Color Blind, we take for granted
The beauty of a world that's planted
With colors that make life shine
Oh, how we wish they were still mine
But Color Blind, it's just a dream
A world without color, it seems
For in this world, we're blessed to see
The beauty of color, set free
So let's cherish every hue
Every shade, every color true
For in a world without color, we'd find
That life would just be color blind.
