Colorblind Lyrics


I am Colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready,
I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready,
I am fine

I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded and unfolded and unfolding
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready,
I am fine
I am fine
I am fine

Colorblind
  • This song is about the extremes that exist within us ("Coffee black and egg white"), our unwillingness to reveal them ("Taffy stuck and tongue tied, stutter shook and uptight"), the defenses we put up to keep people from seeing our true natures ("I am covered in skin, no one gets to come in"), and the terrifying bliss when we let our defenses down to someone we love ("Pull me out from inside, I am ready, I am fine"). Colorblind is the state in which we are no longer judging our inner feelings.
