Lyrics

In Violet

[Verse 1]

Low, let’s see how far I’ll go now that I’ve lost control

I’m stuck here grieving all alone

I’m out of hope, guess that’s the way it goes when you burn dark and slow

I’m done, come bring me home, no

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m sick of funeral black

So when I don’t come back

I want you to celebrate, sing and laugh

[Chorus]

Bury me in violet

Smile for me when you set me free

Dance the pain away

Trade in my soul for your grief

The pain, away

When I leave this wonderful place

[Verse 2]

I’m out of faith

Can you feel my rage?

I’ve fallen far from grace

Come take me far away

Dizzy with hate

All I know is love and pain

Drains the light from my face, shine down, let me escape, so

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m sick of funeral black

So when I don’t come back

I want you to celebrate, sing and laugh

[Chorus]

Bury me in violet

Smile for me when you set me free

Dance the pain away

Trade in my soul for your grief

The pain away

When I leave this wonderful place

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m sick of funeral black

So when I don’t come back

I want you to celebrate, sing and laugh

[Chorus]

Bury me in violet

Smile for me when you set me free

[Outro]

Cry for me in color

Shower me in a lilac rain

Dance the pain, away

The pain away

The pain away

When I leave this wonderful place
