lyrics

Blue was the colour of that old sedan
I used to ride in with mum and dad
Blue was the colour of the wishing well
Where all my good intentions fell
Blue was the colour of the first CD
That ever brought me crying to my knees
Blue was the colour of that living hell you fell, you fell into

And I knew that the blood was on my hands
And I wanted so bad to turn around
And go back to the place where I
Could have made you change your mind

And did you ever wonder if what the philosophers say is true
Time is a circle not a line
If you ever did run out of things to do
You could really bend your mind
Maybe you were always gonna fall
Fall into the blue
Maybe there was nothing we could do
Nothing we could do

Blue was the colour of the cigarettes
I forced myself to smoke at twelve
Blue was the colour of that awful dress
I wore through the winters
Blue was the colour of the ribbons in our hair
They reeked of innocence
Blue was the colour of that living hell you fell, you fell, you fell

And when she told you about the poison dreams
You laughed, you said they’d never make you scream
You thought you were so strong the paranioa’d never get you
You’d be flying high above the rest forever
But of course the fall was coming
I remember feeling sorry for you
You were living in that studio apartment
That excuse for a home
On the other side of town
It wasn’t often that you found the time to sleep
Among your dirty sheets
But the one night you tried you really believed
Your best friend was trying to kill you, that’s when I said

Blue is the colour of that little flame
That makes you slowly insane
Blue is the colour of that crippling shame
You feel when the high fades
Blue is the colour of your artillery veins
I know you have a favourite don’t you
Blue is the colour that overcomes you
As you watch your life disappear in the rear view
