Lyrics:

color yourself, color yourself black and red

and when you find life slow and simple

then you've grown against the grain

but look at yourself, you've got your head held in your hands

there's proof you don't need to possess on command

you color yourself, color yourself bitter gray

in words you are outspoken, but too few hear what you say

you break yourself and still don't understand

conditioned to compete whether you lose or if you win

touch all you see - surround yourself

color yourself, color yourself black and red

and when you find life slow and simple

then you've grown against the grain

but look at yourself, you've got your head held in your hands

there's proof you don't need to possess on command
