Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Love holds the feeling
Shade stumbles where you are
Whisper from the ceiling
Bray at the tell-tale stars
Stave a harsh word
Brave the first world
Fool the loom of twining night

Our love as certain as a rainbow
Our keep as certain as the day
Leave it as it stays
Save this should we fray
I needed someone less I needed me
Colosseum
Colosseum
Colosseum, are you sate?

Loss forms an answer
Dread pours a godly sprite
Simper past creation
Cry with all your might
Speak the high spell
Anoint a wish well
Gather root and verdant crown

Our love is certain as a rainbow
Our keep as certain as the day
Leave it as it stays
Save this should we fray
I needed someone less I needed me
Slay every ingenue that steps upon the stage
Colosseum
Colosseum
Colosseum, are you sate?
Colosseum
Colosseum
Colosseum, are you sate?
