Red Yellow Shell

I've been dancing all alone in this shelter
Read all your apology letters
You're damned if you do
And still damned if you don't
You took every flight
You gave into pleasure
It's our world you gave up forever
You're damned if you do
And still damned if you don't

What a life that I fantasized
But the future is all in my head

'Cause wherever I go now, it's hell
You promised the world, but you gave me a shell
Holding a pearl, but you're drowning as well
Now all that is left is a red yellow shell

My friends kept warning me about my future
But I just want to be lost in illusion
You're damned if you knew, but more damned if you condoned

Now I'm walking down the aisle
Dressed up, till death do us part
Your final vow
I say: I do and then you die
Still, if you survived
There is no one left to give me away

'Cause wherever I go now, it's hell
You promised the world, but you gave me a shell
Holding a pearl but you're drowning as well
Now all that is left is a red yellow shell

A red, red yellow shell
A red, red yellow shell
Round and round
(With red and yellow)

Round and round
(My brush gets stuck in circles)
Round and round
(I'm painting my own funeral, it's like a journal)

'Cause wherever I go now, it's hell
You promised the world, but you gave me a shell
Holding a pearl but you're drowning as well
Now all that is left is a red yellow shell
'Cause wherever I go now, it's hell
You promised the world, but you gave me a shell
Holding a pearl but you're drowning as well
Now all that is left is a red yellow shell

A red, red yellow shell
A red, red yellow shell
