Lyrics:
Checking all the faucets, for that leak keep me awake
Checking all the door locks, for I want to find they’re keeping me safe
Is that OK? Is that OK?
Sucking down all of the falsehoods, defending your case
I take a look in the mirror, do I have the right face
Today?
Is it OK? Is it OK?
‘Cause Colorado doesn’t feel right
You can tell by the look in its eyes
‘Cause there’s a few too many shades
And there’s far too many blades
And it would like you to go inside
‘Cause it don’t know what to say
Even the trees know the meaning of storm clouds
Even the bees know how to make honey from weed flowers
Don’t take the false route, defending your faith
‘Cause only fear could make you hand the mandate
Today
Bit it feels so good, and it feels so right
Sitting in the juror’s seat
But don’t take the fight, don’t fake the fright
Fixing the race yields a false sense of achievement
Just the sensation of coming in first
‘Cause Colorado doesn’t feel right
You can tell by the look in its eyes
‘Cause there’s a few too many shades
And there’s far too many blades
And it would like you to go inside
‘Cause it don’t know what to say
