Blue Lips — Regina Spektor

He stumbled into faith and thought, God this is all there is The pictures in his mind arose and began to breathe And all the Gods and all the worlds Began colliding on a backdrop of blue

Blue lips, blue veins

He took a step but then felt tired, he said I'll rest a little while But when he tried to walk again he wasn't a child And all the people hurried fast, real fast And no one ever smiled

Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away

He stumbled into faith and thought, God this is all there is The pictures in his mind arose and began to breathe

And no one saw and no one heard, they just followed lead The pictures in his mind awoke and began to breed

They started out, beneath the knowledge tree And they chopped it down to make white picket fences And marching along the railroad tracks They smile real wide for the camera lenses They made it past the enemy lines Just to become enslaved in the assembly lines

Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away

Blue, the most human color Blue, the most human color Blue, the most human color

Blue lips, blue veins Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
