All the subtle flavours of my life have become Bitter seeds and poisoned leaves Without you You represent what's true I drain the colour from the sky and turn blue Without you These arms lack a purpose Flappin' like a humming bird I'm nervous 'cause I'm the left eye, you're the right Would it not be madness to fight? We come one In you the song which rights my wrongs In you the fullness of living The power to begin again From right now In you (In you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you, in you) Come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one) We come one (come one, come one, come one) We come one We come We come one I'm unafraid Never, never scared Worries washed Pressed, aired I'm the left eye, you're the right Would it not be madness to fight? We come one (one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one) One (One, one, one, one, one, one) We come one (come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one, come one) One One One We come We come (One) One
