In space the stars are no nearer They just glitter like a morgue And I dreamed I was a spaceman Burned like a moth in a flame And our world was so fucking gone
But I'm not attached to your world Nothing heals and nothing grows
Cause it's a great big white world And we are drained of our colors We used to love ourselves, We used to love one another All my stitches itch My prescription's low, I wish you Were queen Just for today In a world so white what else could I say?
And hell was so cold All the vases are so broken And the roses tear our hands all open Mother Mary miscarry But we pray just like insects The world is so ugly now
Cause it's a great big white world And we are drained of our colors We used to love ourselves, We used to love one another All my stitches itch My prescription's low, I wish you Were queen Just for today In a world so white what else could I say?
