Sorrows been my lover.
I'm leaving her tonight.
We talked under the covers until it felt alright.
It's alright.
She could feel the distance.
I could feel her strain.
We try to keep from breaking until the day we break.
Mmm.
Now I'm out to paint the town any color I can find.
Now I'm out to paint the town with sorrow on my mind.
She was happy being lonely.
She was happy there with me.
So we told a story That everyone believed. Mmm.
We said Joy is just too easy.
We'd rather feel the pain.
And I nodded so completely but did not feel the same.
The same.
Now I'm out to paint the town any color I can find.
Now I'm out to paint the town with sorrow on my mind.
She said I want to be happy.
I want you to be free.
But happiness is only one thing to be.
Or not to be.
And I'm afraid of you leaving.
I'm afraid to stay.
Sorrow will you know me if I go away?
I have to go away.
Now I'm out to paint the town any color I can find.
Now I'm out to paint the town with sorrow on my mind.
