Mia Doi Todd - My Room Is White Lyrics
My room is white, the wallsAnd all my appliances, all compliances.I live in silence, my windowsClosed to traffic, all that racket.You are the opposite. I could never fitInto your apartment.Are we going to give up or (are) we going to try?Are we going to give up or (are) we going to try to learn what life is?The tide comes in, and were caughtBy the rocks and the wetness neverendless.We kiss for the first time, our lips and tonguesTied in fitness, infiniteness.Then the ocean pulls back somehow,To reveal a crowd of uncertainty.Are we going to live up to the words we said?Are we going to live up to love we made? Made? Made?A house, a garden, a family tree,Fruit aplenty, all varieties.Desire fulfilled, inspired untilThe awakening from our daydreaming.Here in reality, what we make believeWe can make happen.Are we going to give up or are we going to try?Are we going to live up or are we going to die tonight?Are we going to give up or are we going to try?Are we going to give up or are we going to try to learn what life is?
