Here's my full English cover of "Hologram" from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood!
I have to admit that I didn't care for this song that much when I first heard it. It wasn't my favorite Fullmetal opening. It eventually grew on me, though! Hearing Y. Chang's version definitely helped with that; I knew I had to incorporate his lyrics into my cover. Make sure to check out his content!
I'm pretty happy with how this cover turned out. Out of the covers I've done so far, it's likely my most favorite. I hope you guys enjoy it!

LYRICS:
[Intro]
Draw me with a picture of a higher place I know
When the color fades to white again is where I'll go
[Verse 1]
Grey-slated heather
The sky's got my back
Might be lost, but I'm moving on
Whatever the weather
Dreams dot the map
When you see them, I'll be gone
Red-light shrouds
Change every day, but I'm sure it won't be long
I know step by step, I'll fly far beyond the highest clouds
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Always be strong
Never be wrong
That was all a front for my heart
Empty as a well
Finally, the raindrops fell
Revived the dream and showed me where to start
[Chorus 1]
Outta sight like rays of light and I am on my way
Through the bluest moon and the darkest river
I'll go through it all and never fall astray
Burn the prize into my eyes and let the image play
When the color fades to white again, I'll seize the day
[Verse 2]
Lost in the echo
A prayer’s on the mind
And I’ve always kept it close
Sight ever narrow
How I was blind
To the things that mattered most
You couldn’t start to believe
The hologram showing my wildest dreams
It got me
It’s more alluring than the brightest diamonds that you have seen
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now I am thrown
Out on my own
Out into the picture I drew
Fading in the dawn
Finally, the pain is gone
Reflecting off and clearing up the view
[Chorus 2]
Realigned to pavement lines and I am heading out
If I stumble down and my wounds are opened
I know I’ll recover, stronger and devout
Draw me with a picture of a higher place I know
When the color fades to white again is where I'll go
[Bridge]
Far beyond the clouds so frightening
Multicolored lights are brightening
When it’s all too much to take
When I think I might just break
Whoa, somewhere out there, somebody is calling for me
Yeah! Whoa!
[Chorus 3]
Shining bright, the rays of light are setting me aglow
In the afternoon when the rain has lifted
They shower upon me, pushing me to go
Reinvent the gradient and brighten up the gray
For no matter where I am, forget the 'yes or no'
I know that when the color fades to white again, I’ll seize the day
