The wounds on your hands never seem to heal I thought all I needed was to believe. Here am I, a lifetime away from you The blood of Christ, or the beat of my heart My love wears forbidden colours My life believes. Senseless years thunder by Millions are willing to give their lives for you Does nothing live on. Forbidden Colours was written as part of the score for the movie Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, that featured David Bowie and Takeshi Kitano. The movie deals with the repression and ambiguity linked to homosexual love in a war environment, and this song explores the same topic in a more subtle way. Forbidden Colours Seed and the Sower.
