Colours Fade lyrics

They never fall asleep before me But they don’t know That waking up too early Feels like traffic in the summer heat This time will be different I promise This one won’t get broken Quicker than red leaves fall This song will be better Than all I’ve done I keep saying This song will be better Than all I’ve done before But if happy ever after’s only Acceptance Should I keep searching for a balance Or should I just wait until The colours fade away
