"Color Blind" lyrics - THE MAGPIE SALUTE

THE MAGPIE SALUTE
"Color Blind"
(John Hogg / Rich Robinson)

I am both sides of the same coin
I remember in my school being the wrong color
They called me a walking contradiction
Two myths of creation, but I come from the one Mother, and
I live deep inside a noise
All that suffering, I didn't even have a choice
So I, I come and go as I please
Colorblind and free
When will the world catch up with me?

[Chorus:]
(I am colorblind)
When will the world catch up with me?
(I am colorblind)
I am colorblind and free

My blood is a magical spring
Mix of the races, it don't mean nothin' to me
My skin is a beautiful canvas
All the colors of creation, scarred on the inside
I see all around a broken dream
Everything's in black and white
When will the world catch up with me?

[Chorus:]
(I am colorblind)
When will the world catch up with me?
(I am colorblind)
I am colorblind and free
(I am colorblind)
'Cause everybody's waitin', waitin', waitin', waitin'
(I am colorblind)
Oh, oh, I am colorblind
