Verse 1:
I never was much and I never claimed to be
content to blend in the background scenery
just wanted to live a normal life
college,
a job
maybe a wife
she was constantly the talk of the school
I was just some guy and she was the height of cool
and yet we shared that last amazing night
and now she's gone and nothing's right
I thought it would continue the next day
but others' plans got in the way
Verse 2:
That night she left, it just was out of the blue
I didn't worry, much 'cause this was nothing new
and then I hear the gut-wrenching news
and I obbessed over cryptic clues
I wonder through this cluttered empty room
and I can't help it, it feels just like a tomb
Take in the scent of her and my thoughts turn black
As I realize... she's not coming back
And here I thought I had her all figured out
Did anyone really know what she was all about?
Chorus:
Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad?
Is she just playing a trick or are things really bad?
Does she want to live? Does she want to die?
or is she just a helium balloon in the sky
Will she come back or is she gone for good?
How much more have I misunderstood?
Why did she leave those clues behind
What the hell was on her mind?
Verse 3
There's can be no doubt she left a legacy
the pranks she pulled
will go down in school history
the things she did here change everyone
I wish she could see how much she's done
They tell me to quit to give her up for lost
I can't follow her down the road that she's been tossed
they say she just doesn't want to be found
and I can't pull her string back to the ground
But still I search, afraid of what I'll find
But more afraid of leaving her behind
Bridge:
was the labyrinth too much for her to bear?
Did the strings break, leaving her in open air?
If only I gotten to know her before,
and now it's after and there's no chance anymore
Verse 4:
a poet once said to look upon the ground
to the grass beneath our feet, and perhaps answers, can be found
But it's must of a mystery as she
there's so many things these leaves could be
the vessel has cracked, if only just a bit
and maybe straight and fast is the only way out of it
and as I see what this small glimpse can tell
I lose some of myself as well
There's so much about her that I still don't understand
but I'm looking as hard as I can
Chorus
Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad?
Is she just playing a trick or are things really bad?
Does she want to live? Does she want to die?
or is she just a helium balloon in the sky
Will she come back or is she gone for good?
How much more have I misunderstood?
Why did she leave those clues behind
What the hell was on her mind?
Chorus with Bridge:
Was she Yellow or blue? Was she happy or sad?
was the labyrinth too much for her to bear?
Is she just playing a trick or are things really bad?
Did the strings break, leaving her in open air?
Does she want to live? Does she want to die?
or is she just a helium balloon in the sky
Will she come back or is she gone for good?
If only I gotten to know her before,
and now it's after and there's no chance anymore
How much more have I misunderstood?
and now it's after and there's no chance anymore
Why did she leave those clues behind
What the hell was on her mind?
