lyrics

Red-green
Yellow-blue
I've never met
A color like you

Light up the sky
Collapsing star
Blowing up bright
From so very far

I know it's safe
I know it's best
Looking like chroma
I'd never have guessed

In the blink of an eye
I'm caught in your waves
Caught in your rays
A memory to save

Spectronoma
Dropping colors like bombs
Spectronoma
Rods and cones set alight
Spectronoma
Radiation warming my blood
Spectronoma
Fading
Spectronoma
Dropping colors like bombs
Spectronoma
Rods and cones you set alight
Spectronoma
Radiation warming my blood
Spectronoma
Fading with you

The hue
The hue in my dreams
Splashed from the night
To the day's color schemes

Look so loud
Supernova sound
Shining light
On a vacant background

Red-green
Yellow-blue
Sketch a name
For me to call you

Set the canvas alight
Sets you apart
Misnomers abound
In enigmatic art

Spectronoma
Dropping colors like bombs
Spectronoma
Rods and cones set alight
Spectronoma
Radiation warming my blood
Spectronoma
Fading
Spectronoma
Dropping colors like bombs
Spectronoma
Rods and cones you set alight
Spectronoma
Radiation warming my blood
Spectronoma
Fading with you

Red-green
Yellow-blue
I've never met
A color like you
