Townsend, Devin - Color Your World Lyrics






See how the ways of the world keep lying to me
See how the weight of the world keeps lying on me
Sooner or later the nights with the satyr
Will bring back the memory in time

See how the sight of it all keeps flying to me
Years of the power of all he's trying to be

Who's the weakest now?
Caught up in the wire
I'm already gone
Who's the weakest?

I concede to life to do whatever I need
What's in a life, but bodies?

So confusing, confounding

I'm Ziltoid! I don't give a shit
I live above Earth in a big rocket ship
I'm Ziltoid! The horror! The horror
I'm Ziltoid! The horror! The horror
The horror
I'm Ziltoid! The horror! The horror
The horror

Far far far away...

Stay at home for me, you and I are free
To love, by the firewall tune out, for a while

Stay at home for me, come alive are we (Ziltoid, the Omniscient...)
In time, you'll be gone again, tune out for a while...

Say I'm wasting all my life
Say I'm wasting time...

Stay at home for me, you and I are free (Ziltoid, the Omniscient!)
To love...

So in the end, it's beautiful. It's beautiful
Yes in the end, it's beautiful. So beautiful...

You say you wanna know?
You say you wanna take it down?
You say you wanna know, no no?
Well, now's the only time
Are you sure you wanna know?
Are you sure you wanna take it down?
Are you sure you wanna go, go, go?

You're a puppet

You are a puppet
You are a puppet
You are a puppet
You are a puppet

I am a puppet
I am a puppet
I am a puppet
I am a puppet

We are all puppets
We are all puppets

    God damn, can't believe it's been 12 years.

    "Sooner or later the nights with the satyr
    Will bring back the memory in time
    " - Reference to "Wrong Side" from The New Black (SYL)


    "Who's the weakest now?
    Caught up in the wire...
    I'm already gone
    Who's the weakest?" - Reference to "Voices in the Fan" from Ocean Machine


    "I concede to life to do whatever I need.
    What's in a life, but bodies?" - Reference to "Bodies 13", one of the oldest demos of SYL.

  4. D.... M....

    This kind of kicks ass.

  5. M.... ....

    We are all puppets

  6. P.... O....

    I am the omnipotent presence in this universe. I am all you shall ever know. Between the zeitgeist of life and death is where I reside, a black hole of ultimate destruction and unending horror, a terror beyond anyone's fascination that cannot be stopped. Bare witness to the pinnacle of galactic conquest unbeknownst to all of you peons. There is nothing you can do. Submit and worship me eternally for I am your new leader. I am your Mistress. I am your God.

  7. A.... P....

    Damn I've forgotten how good this song is. It's been so long. That middle section...

  8. C.... W....

    I'm trying so hard to like this band I actually like this song tho

  9. P.... P....

    I'M ZILTOID!
    I DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
    I LIVE ABOVE EARTH IN A BIG ROCKET SHIP!

  10. P.... C....

    3:53 Final Fantasy??

  11. W.... A....

    1:53 to 2:13 are fuckin amazing.

  12. G.... L....

    I always heard: "You are a wombat! I am a wombat! We are all wombats!" xD

    G.... L....

    +TheySmashedAnHourglass You haven't seen "Retinal Circus" yet, have you? Lol.

    G.... L....

    No, I've just hear of it .-.

  13. J.... ....

    GUYSGUYSGUYS sing "we are all puppets, we are all puppets"

    in Morse code that becomes: dash dash dash (rest) dash dash = O M. The Alien and Hummer albums also end with this Morse code for "OM." Oh Dev, you rascal.

    J.... ....

    And the song OM was a demo in the Infinity sessions!

    J.... ....

    i wonder what the meaning of om is, because why would he go through all this trouble to fit om into multiple albums as an easter egg after creating a song of the same name?

    J.... ....

    +zoomoo318 OM is the mantra that can take you to your true essense, where you are truly free. (According you yoga philosophy and probably budhism as well.)

    J.... ....

    @Walter Brokx Good to know. Looks like lonely productions got their Hands on this video as well ;__;

  14. D.... ....

    this is somewhat soilworkish

  15. R.... t....

    found the 1:08 "Voices in the Fan" reference

    R.... t....

    0:27 Strapping Young Lad - Wrong Side

  16. L.... A....

    I always find it fascinating that he reused lyrics from SYL in this.

    L.... A....

    @Luc Angelo Finney and a line off voices in the fan from ocean machine. i think he did this as kind of a closure to both and a way to combine both sides of his music and kill them off, seeing as how he dissolved syl and DTB right before this.

  17. R.... t....

    And it's got the "u" in "colour"! YES!

  18. C.... I....

    Behold, and quiver with anxious trepidation, for it is the return of the golden age of Metal! ALL HAIL ZILTOID THE OMNISCIENT!

    C.... I....

    The horror... the horror...

  19. 1.... ....

    WE ARE ALL PUPPETS!

  20. C.... S....

    GRANDMAAAAAAAAAAAA

  21. M.... ....

    You were smart to include King Diamond in your comment!

  22. E.... ....

    This song has so much feeling, all condensed and dripping pure sound. Its even more amazing that this masterpiece is all Devin, he plays all the instruments and sings all the vocals.

  23. m.... ....

    7:46 and on - this always blows my mind!!!

  24. K.... ....

    Well put

  25. C.... P....

    this and Them by King Diamond r easily the best concept albums ever made

    C.... P....

    Traveller should be on there.

    C.... P....

    @HikoSeijuroXIII Don't know the album, from which band?
