COLOR BLIND
Color Blind Revelations: Exploring Perception and Identity in Floyd Cascade's Melody
Lyrics
Got me so damn gone, I'm just holding my-
Expressing intense feelings, possibly influenced by substances
Different colored drinks, I think I'm color blind
Suggesting a blurred perception of reality, feeling colorblind due to different drinks
I can hold your secrets, if you're holding mine
Offering to keep secrets in exchange for reciprocation
Now these drinks talking now, I just might
Implying that the effects of the drinks are making communication more open
Shh
A moment of silence or secrecy
Moonlight
Reference to a dreamy or surreal atmosphere
I don't see the sun
Choosing not to focus on the negative (sun), perhaps avoiding reality
Can't decide
Indecision or inner conflict
Shouldn't be the one
Questioning one's role or significance
Color blind
Feeling emotionally detached or indifferent, seeing only one perspective
All I see is one
Perceiving a singular focus or person
All I see is, one side
Seeing only one side of a situation
Whole world knows that, I've tried
Acknowledging public awareness of personal struggles
V.I.P, 'til I R.I.P, yeah
Describing a VIP lifestyle until death
In the same room, you can't see what I see, yeah
Highlighting a unique perspective that others can't understand
If you take one, maybe you could feel like me, yeah
Suggesting that trying substances might provide insight into the singer's emotions
One of one, some shit you've never seen, yeah
Emphasizing uniqueness or rarity
On me, yeah
Personal ownership or responsibility
I can have it whenever
Claiming accessibility or control over a desirable thing
A fiend, yeah for me, yeah
Describing a strong attraction or dependency
Yeah I know its hard to trust me
Acknowledging difficulty in gaining trust
I tease her, mistreat her
Describing teasing and mistreatment in a relationship
Now this molly get me rollin'
Drug reference, feeling the effects of a substance
I'm t'd up, I'm t'd up
Expressing excitement or being in an altered state
All this money, one shade
Highlighting the uniformity of money
Spend it all in, one day
Impulsivity in spending large amounts quickly
On a plain, no Cobain
Reference to a plane journey, perhaps escaping reality
All this money, one shade
Reiteration of the uniformity of money
Spend it all in, one day
Repetition of impulsive spending
On a plain, no Cobain
Reiteration of escaping reality through travel
Got me so damn gone, I'm just holding my-
Similar to the first line, expressing a heightened state of being
Different colored drinks, I think I'm color blind
Reiteration of feeling colorblind due to different drinks
I can hold your secrets, if you're holding mine
Reiterating willingness to keep and exchange secrets
Now these drinks talking now, I just might
Reiterating the effects of drinks on communication
Shh
Reiteration of a moment of silence or secrecy
Moonlight
Reiterating a dreamy or surreal atmosphere
I don't see the sun
Reiteration of avoiding the negative (sun) and focusing on the positive (moonlight)
Can't decide
Reiteration of indecision or inner conflict
Shouldn't be the one
Reiteration of questioning one's role or significance
Color blind
Reiteration of feeling emotionally detached or indifferent, seeing only one perspective
All I see is one
Reiteration of perceiving a singular focus or person
All I see is, one side
Reiteration of seeing only one side of a situation
Whole world knows that, I've tried
Reiteration of public awareness of personal struggles
