Rainbow Scars by Chris Robson
[Intro]
[Verse]
There you are again, hiding with your friends,
Listening to the same old stories, just with different ends.
Then you stare at me, with eyes that cannot see,
What youâre slowly turning into and do I hold the key.
[Chorus]
If you show me your rainbow scars,
Spend a night with me under the stars,
And think about the place you want to be.
Show me how it feels,
Tell me when the wheels stop turning,
And I will come to you to set you free.
[Verse]
Now youâre losing hope, thoughts have turned to rope,
So you start to cry for clarity trying hard to cope.
With all that life can bring, you want your heart to sing,
I know that you can hear the harmonies that my world can bring.
[Chorus]
If you show me your rainbow scars,
Spend a night with me under the stars,
And think about the place you want to be.
Show me how it feels,
Tell me when the wheels stop turning,
And I will come to you to set you free.
[Refrain]
And if you think you ve had a taster of what is on the other side,
Then I think you must be taking the whole world for a ride.
[Verse]
So if you close your eyes, to all that you despise,
Sink into the slow serenity as you start to rise,
When itâs time to reap, and youâll be fast asleep,
No-one will hear me coming and youâll be mine to keep.
[Chorus]
If you show me your rainbow scars,
Spend a night with me under the stars,
And think about the place you want to be.
Show me how it feels,
Tell me when the wheels stop turning,
And I will come to you to set you free.
Yes I will come to you to set you free.
[Refrain]
Up above the streets and houses, the sky is cold and grey,
Paint the whole world with a rainbow, I still wonât go away.
