|
My purple heart, all red and blue |
|
Still lingers on the thought of you |
|
Thou it's just a little stain |
|
I was hoping it would fade by now |
|
Thou it's over done and said |
|
It's heavier than lead somehow |
|
It lights a spark, leaves a residue |
|
It burns in me, all the embers of you |
|
It's a darkest lullaby, tucks me in but still |
|
I lie awake' |
|
Cuz that morning sun will rise |
|
And I hope |
|
I'm not the same as yesterday |
|
You would think that |
|
I'm okay from the outside looking in |
|
Yes I'm hard on myself but that's just the way |
|
I amSo I put it in a box and |
|
I keep it locked away |
|
For as long as |
|
I canI picture you alone and you're picking up the pieces |
|
I know I let you down |
|
But I swear |
|
I had my reasons to let you go |
|
But I'm just stuck with this purple heart, all red and blue |
|
Still lingers on the thought of you |
|
I know you can't forgive but |
|
I don't want to regret |
|
The life I would have lived if |
|
I didn't say the things |
|
I saidI'll surrender to this purple heart |
|
It's no longer pumping red, this purple heart |
|
The darkest shade of blue, this purple heart |
