Sapphire

Sapphire - Late Night Alumni

The sky, the sea, and you…

you’re all blue.

It’s clearly the loneliest color you do.

Take in some oxygen

and lift up your chin.

Open your ears and let something in.

Sometimes when blue

lights hide your eyes you look alive.

Disguised, I realize,

you’re afraid. You’re paralyzed.

Sapphire, you’re like twilight

and gunfire…and how’s that right?

You’re still as polished stone…

you’re alone.

But I bet you’d rather not be on your own.

For real, you’re genuine,

and I see where you’ve been.

Open your head and let someone in.

Sometimes when blue lights

hide your eyes you look alive.

Disguised, I realize, you’re afraid.

You’re paralyzed.

Sapphire, you’re like twilight

and gunfire…and how’s that right? Sapphire.
