I Was a Kaleidoscope - Live

[00:18.82] I put on my overcoat and walked into winter
[00:23.56] My teeth chattered rhythms
[00:26.30] And they were grouped in twos or threes
[00:29.07] Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me
[00:34.23] And cars on slippery slopes, they're stuck
[00:36.96] People pushing through their mittens as I was beginning
[00:42.06] To feel it soaking through my shoes
[00:44.81] Getting colder with every step
[00:47.89] I took to your apartment, dear
[00:51.14]
[01:07.53] And I was a kaleidoscope
[01:10.52] The snow on my lenses distorting the image
[01:15.47] Of what was only one of you
[01:17.92] And I didn't know which one to address, as all your lips moved
[01:24.83] And this is when I forget to breathe
[01:28.24] And all the things I scripted, they sound unfounded
[01:32.33] And it's that look that you're giving me
[01:35.59] That tells me exactly what you are thinking
[01:39.79] This ain't working anymore
[01:42.39]
[01:57.39] They got their mothers worked into a panic
[02:00.96] Sledding down hills into oncoming traffic
[02:05.06] Then parents layered clothes until the children couldn't move, and then
[02:08.93] Left them outside 'til their noses were blue
[02:12.94] And I got left there too
[02:17.44]
[02:25.74] I put on my overcoat and walked into winter
[02:30.42] My teeth chattered rhythms
[02:33.48] And they were grouped in twos or threes
[02:36.08] Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me
[02:43.00]
