This song is about finding someone who makes life worth living, or anything you'd like to interpret from the frankly abstract lyrics.
The vocals are a little flat in this song as it is a very old recording and it does not represent my vocal style as of the release of this album, however I felt that re-recording the vocals would undermine the rawness of the song.
lyrics
colour me in another shade of red
I need a hook to keep me here
and yet sometimes I feel fine
sometimes I feel fine
cover me up, shield me from light
I never did find out who I was
and yet sometimes I feel fine
sometimes I feel fine
