Purple

Such a beautiful color you wear upon your skin
And a perfect shade of purple on a flower permanent
And I'm constantly reminded of a past that never bloomed
As I sit behind these bars only silence fills the room.

I've never been down this road before
As the days go by I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up and never going to die
I never realized what you meant to me
Until I tried drowning out your memory
But it burns red like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober.

Such a beautiful color I wear upon my skin
And a perfect shade of purple on a flower permanent
And I'm constantly reminded of how I should have changed
And now I can't stop thinking about the love that slipped away
It slipped away.

I've never been down this road before
As the days go by I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up and never going to die
I never realized what you meant to me
Until I tried drowning out your memory
But it burns red like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober.

You're all that I ever wanted
You're all that I ever needed
And now I'm spending a lifetime
Drowning without you
I'm starting over and over again.

Such a beautiful color you wear upon your skin
And a perfect shade of purple on a flower permanent.

I've never been down this road before
As the days go by I only miss you more
I thought one day we would touch the sky
Never grow up and never going to die
I never realized what you meant to me
Until I tried drowning out your memory
But it burns red like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober.

Never grow up and never going to die

Until I tried drowning out your memory
But it burns red like it's not over
It only hurts when I'm sober.

It only hurts when it's over.
