"World of Tinted Color"

These dull and darkened symmetries
The beauty that the eye can see
Masquerading as a dimming light
Perfection in what we percieve
We paint the lines, what we believe
And say it's 20/20 in the night

[chorus]
We search and we discover
This world of tinted color
Claiming all our eyes can capture, still
Photographs of what we know
Only the things that we've been shown
To see it all, not sure we ever will

Lights flood in the retinas
And we believe it just because
It's offered to us on a simple plate
But blind and sightless souls could say
That you could take it all away
And still there's more to see than just the face

[chorus]
We search and we discover
This world of tinted color
Claiming all our eyes can capture, still
Photographs of what we know
Only the things that we've been shown
To see it all, not sure we ever will

The way we look at life
All depends on the lens
Whether you see the black and white
But everybody's sight remains
So coiled up and trapped inside
But the physical and visible
Aren't all these hands can make

[chorus]
We search and we discover
This world of tinted color
Claiming all our eyes can capture, still
Photographs of what we know
Only the things that we've been shown
To see it all, not sure we ever will
We ever will
We ever will
Until
