English translation:As if my mind was a TV with no colour
Explanation:
its me again. Reconsidering the phrase I might be wrong about my previous idea...

The above is a more literal translation.

actually I think he maybe means that his mind is lacking colour
he/she might be trying to say that he/her mind is kind of dull, lacking in joy, colour, life...

but with the full context in hand you will be able to decide what is really meant here.

Godd luck!
