lyrics
You get to choose
The color of your hair
You get to select
The targets for your prayers
But you cannot choose what you need.
You can't choose the color that you bleed.
You get to pick your books
Choose to delete or rework every page
And you get to decide
To read them now or simply let them age.
But you can't choose the color that you bleed.
You can't choose what you need.
[Instrumental Verse]
But you cannot choose what you need
You can't choose the color that you bleed
You get to fill your barren closets
With sackcloth, denim or silk
And you get to stock your empty pantry
With water, wine, whisky or milk.
But you cannot choose what you need
You can't choose the color that you bleed
But you cannot choose what you need
You can't choose the color that you bleed
