When I Can't Do Anything Else

Color Doctor

Let me paint on you, with my colors and broken brushes;

I'll set you on fire with orange and red strokes, slow and steady executions of seething anger - eagerly scourging your skin with the flames of my love,

I'll free you with colors of our home, hold on to me while I paint the ground brown, as the world breathes an aura of life that rebuilds their bones,

I'll give you peaceful slumber and fill the dark canvas in the sky with an ocean of eyes - that gleamed whenever they see a beautiful maiden such as you, and now you know why stars shine,

I'll drown us together in the depths of the abyss; the seas as blue as the sky can comprehend, caving in on us as I swirl around my palette, finding the right kind of blue, so the view won't be such a pain to you,

I'll be putting my colors on your skin the way you want me to, and I'll be happy to oblige
Sometimes I might make a mistake, and paint you with a color that wasn't mine, because I can be a little jealous, and I just want what's good for you,
But, I know you'd forgive me,
And I'll always be there with you
Laying there beside the dangers of the world
Right beside you

Let me paint you, with my colors and broken brushes;

And I promise I'll never paint you whole
To the point you'll never recognize
Your soul,

For your soul is the key
To my life that is full
Of colors
