A# Here is a scale, weigh it out and you will find easily Dm More than sufficient doubt that these colors you see Gm Were picked in advance by some careful hand D# F With an absolute concept of beauty A# They are smeared and these blurs come in random order Dm To color the eyes of your former lovers Gm Hers were green like July except when she cried D# F They were red A# Now I know a disease that these doctors canʼt treat Dm You contract it the day you accept all you see Gm Is a mirror and a mirror is all it can be D# F A reflection of something weʼre missing A# And language just happened, it was never planned Dm And itʼs inadequate to describe where I am Gm In the room of my house where the light has never been D# F Waiting for this day to end D# F And these clocks keep unwinding and completely ignore Dm Gm Everything that we hate or adore D# F Once the page of a calendar is turned itʼs no more Dm Gm So tell me then, what was it for? D# F A# Oh tell me, what was it for?
