ben gibbard (lead singer of death cab for cutie and the postal service) playing "a lack of color" off the album "transatlanticism" by death cab for cutie live and acoustic on kexp. think it's okay to upload it as you can't buy it anywhere. if you want to buy the original song, buy the album or look it up on itunes (or wherever you prefer to download your mp3s). :)

lyrics:

And when I see you

I really see you upside down

But my brain knows better

It picks you up and turns you around

If you feel discouraged

There is a lack of color here

Please don't worry lover

It's really bursting at the seems

From absorbing everything

The spectrums a to z

This is fact not fiction

For the first time in years

All the girls in every girlie magazine

Can't make me feel any less alone

I'm reaching for the phone

To call the 703

On your machine I beg and plead

For you to come home

But I know it's too late

I should have given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

Given you a reason to stay

This is fact not fiction

For the first time in years
