TEN - The Rainbow lyrics

rate me

The headlines read well known socialite

Fell to her death from thirteen floors

For one so young for one so beautiful

The signs were easy to ignore

This was no ordinary suicide

She breathed success from every pore

But when the pain became unbearable

She hit the brakes to stop it all

Those eyes diffract the rainbow

White light is all she sees

Veiled by her life's illusion

With pieces of a broken dream

Sometimes the pressure gets too much to bear

And through it seemed she had it all

The colours of the life she used to share

Were just the shadows of before

Those eyes diffract the rainbow

White light is all she sees

Veiled by her life's illusion

With pieces of a broken dream

Truth lies beyond the rainbow

Blue skies are fantasy

Inside the sad delusion

She balanced in reality, closer to insanity

The truth behind the headline should have read

The crowd below could hear her call

But had no patience for the words she said

They only came to watch her fall

Those eyes diffract the rainbow

White light is all she sees

Veiled by her life's illusion

With pieces of a broken dream

Truth lies beyond the rainbow

Blue skies are fantasy

Inside the sad delusion

She balanced in reality, closer to insanity
