My Room Is White Lyrics - Singles - Mia Doi Todd

My room is white, the walls 

And all my appliances, all compliances. 

I live in silence, my windows 

Closed to traffic, all that racket. 

You are the opposite. I could never fit 

Into your apartment. 

Are we going to give up or (are) we going to try? 

Are we going to give up or (are) we going to try to learn what life is? 

The tide comes in, and we're caught 

By the rocks and the wetness neverendless. 

We kiss for the first time, our lips and tongues 

Tied in fitness, infiniteness. 

Then the ocean pulls back somehow, 

To reveal a crowd of uncertainty. 

Are we going to live up to the words we said? 

Are we going to live up to love we made? Made? Made? 

A house, a garden, a family tree, 

Fruit aplenty, all varieties. 

Desire fulfilled, inspired until 

The awakening from our daydreaming. 

Here in reality, what we make believe 

We can make happen. 

Are we going to give up or are we going to try? 

Are we going to live up or are we going to die tonight? 

Are we going to give up or are we going to try? 

Are we going to give up or are we going to try to learn what life is?
