Blue Lips lyrics

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 the lead

The pictures in his mind awoke

And began to breed

They started off beneath the knowledge tree

And they chopped it down to make a picket fence

And marching along the railroad tracks

They smiled real wide for the camera lens

As 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 [x3]

Blue lips, blue veins

Blue, the color of our planet

From far, far away
