violet

Pretty Violet, where've you been? I found you hurling in the bin You know, we used to be friends Fell in love with you one day The sweat was dripping down your face Your hair was longer back then And I hadn't seen you since And wondered where you'd been Some things are better left unsaid An overwhelming sense of guilt I saw you crying in the pit And now, you're laying on me The band was loud, you spilled your drink We'd talk for hours 'bout your shit Patching all the loose ends Ooh, how much longer 'till we're done? Smoking cigs in my backyard On the pillin' sofa But we both know how this ends I'll starve myself until you open up I'm keeping my mouth shut Sweeping it all underneath the rug Until it's full of bugs You scaled the train tracks in the dark I can hear you're deep in thought You left a trail of ashes A few years later, I have not Heard from you or anyone There's so much I could've said to you There's so much I could've said to you There's so much I could've said to you There's so much I could've said to you Some things are better left unsaid Ooh-ooh-ooh, ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
