Paint with the colours of your soul.
Paint with purple, the calmness of day.
Paint with pink, the dance of the fairies.
Paint with yellow, the happiness of friends.
Paint with peach, the hope of many.
Paint with white, the purity of innocence.
Paint with orange, the going down of the sun.
Paint with silver, the silver lining of clouds.
Paint with bronze, the frozen life.
Paint with blue, the tears of your soul.
Paint with green, the sickness of a dog.
Paint with gold, the riches of men.
Paint with red, the fire of hell.
Paint with charcoal, the emotionless knife.
Paint with black, the demons of the night.
Paint with colours of your soul.
