If the grapes were yellow
But the seeds were red
Would I still love you?
If the white apple perched on the tree
Fell and exploded into light blue seeds
Would you still love me?

If our green orb or a world
Turned sickly and grey with death
Would you be there for me?
If the clear lens of my eyes
Turned violet with explosion
Would I be there for you?


Or would I even be there
