incubus - "redefine" lyrics


Imagine your brain,
As a canister filled with ink,
Yeah, now think of your body,
As the pen where the ink resides,
Fuse the two; KAPOW!
What are you now?
You're the human magic marker,
Won't you please surprise my eyes?
It's in your nature,
You can paint whatever picture you like,
No matter what Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight,
So modify this third rock from the sun,
By painting myriads of pictures,
With the colors of one.
I'm sick of painting in black and white,
My pen is dry; now I'm uptight,
So sick of limiting myself,
To fit your definition
Picture the scene,
Where whatever you thought,
Would, in the blink of an eye,
Manifest and become illustrated,
You'd be sure, man,
That every line drawn reflected a life that you loved,
Not an existence that you hated,
So, must we demonstrate that
We can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture,
Now we're drowning in paint
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about,
Before the picture we painted
Chews us up and spits us out.
I'm sick of painting in black and white,
So sick of limiting myself, To fit your definition
Redefine.
