To Struggle with Light Colors

A violet night keeps you alive

But you never had the will to just take it in

I was possessed by your eyes

But you fell asleep most of the time

So I learned to speak to myself

While you were in a dream somewhere else so

Maybe, maybe if

I could see you now

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

She always said

I was too silent

And I never found the words to entertain her

Maybe I tried just too hard to always be clever

While she only stopped for simple words

To keep her safe, to keep her safe

Maybe, maybe if

I could see you now

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

Maybe, maybe if

I don't save you now

I'll keep myself shattered somehow

Oh in every way, every way somehow

Then she would speak with a silver tongue

Yeah to whisper to me something sweet

And swipe me away

I sold your soul to a pack of wolves

For two pounds of pride and a lifetime supply of regret

Regret Violet night keeps you alive

But you never had the will to just take it

Maybe it's all for the best

So darling don't lose any sleep over me, me, me

Maybe if I could see you now

I'll find a way to sing somehow

Something to make you stay so wide awake, somehow

Maybe, maybe if

I don't save you now

I'll keep myself shattered somehow

Oh in every way, every way somehow
