When we first came here
we were cold and we were clear
with no colours in our skin
we were light and paper's thin
When we first came here
we were cold and we were clear
with no colours in our skin
till you let the spectrum in
Say my name
and every colour illuminates
we are shining
and we will never be afraid again
Say my name
and every colour illuminates
we are shining
and we will never be afraid again (x2)
And we come for you
we'll be dressed up all in blue
with the ocean in my arms
kiss your eyes and kiss your palms
And when it's time to pray
we'll be dressed up all in grey
with metal on our tongues
and silver in our lungs
Say my name
and every colour illuminates
we are shining
and we'll never be afraid again(x2)
Say my name
as every colour illuminates
we are shining
and we'll never be afraid again
Say my name
and every colour illuminates
and we'll never be afraid again
And we come back
we'll be dressed in black
and you'll scream our names aloud
and we won't eat and we won't sleep
we'll drag bodies from their graves
Say my name
