Blue

[verse 1] It’s like bad milk on your night stand Something awful that you can’t let go to waste An old soul you can’t let go Ten fingers wrapped around your throat They say you get what you give But I can’t give shit I’m stuck in this trench Counting all my sins You want what I’m not? Well here’s what I’ve got Another sad song from my fucked up thoughts! (Oh, it never stops) [Chorus] I can’t make something pretty when everybody’s listening Thought I wanted to But everything around me is blue It comes and goes so swiftly Tells me no one will miss me I never know the truth when everything around me is blue [verse 2] Get pushed in these ditches reopening stitches for days Bet you all think I just throw salt in my wounds just for my own amusement Okay? And I bet you’ll all leave when - [Chorus] I can’t make something pretty when everybody’s listening Thought I wanted to But everything around me is blue It comes and goes so swiftly Tells me no one will miss me I never know what’s true When everything around me is… [breakdown] So transactional, just a fraction of what it was And I’m fucking spent! Oh! They say you get what you give, but that don’t mean shit Cause selling my sins never made me rich so- [alt. Chorus] I can’t make something pretty when everybody’s listening Thought I fucking wanted to When everything around me is... blue! Blue! [outro] Inside there’s something missing Can’t say that life is pretty when I lie with you You know there’s nothing I can do And if tomorrow’s empty I know you’ll be there to kiss me Leave a mark or two To show them all that I’m with you
