In Need of Color

Lower your fists!

There is beauty in everyone.
There are reasons for all of us to exist.
There is beauty in everyone.
We’ll raise our hearts, lower our fists.

Some days, I want to pull all these plugs.
Not in self-destruction, simply in disconnection.
Some days, I want to run away
from all this sadness, from all the pain I see.

I cannot connect.
I cannot connect.
I cannot connect.
I cannot connect.

(We need more color!)

There is beauty in everyone.
There are reasons for all of us to exist.
There is beauty in everyone.
We’ll raise our hearts, lower our fists.

Tell me everything. Tell me all of it.
Tell me what I can say, tell me what I can do.
Tell me all of it. Tell me all of you.
I want to know the burden. I’ll help you carry it.

Help me connect.
Help me connect.
Help me connect.
Help me connect.

I want to know how it feels
to blend in with the darkness.
I want to know how it feels
to be invisible.

I want to know how it feels
to stand tall and with strength.
I want to know we’ll feel
when we open our hearts.

Come take my place.

There is beauty in everyone.
There are reasons for all of us to exist.
There is beauty in everyone.
We’ll raise our hearts, lower our fists.

Instead of shining in the sunlight,
I need to feel like I’ve been snuffed out.
Because that’s what you feel, and that’s what you know.
Come take my place, come take my place.

Evan Zegiel has been writing poetry and lyrics for years. He is primarily an orchestral tuba player, but has been playing bass and electric guitar for about the same amount of time. Merging those skills resulted in the birth of House of Hummingbirds.
