Violet

The tragic comedy divine paints the way to peace of mind
Leaving shallow lovers far behind past uncertainties
Combine bringing tears to sleepless eyes memory runs
The course of time blood runs cold beyond
The violet prison for violent visions and so
The broken record plays as you throw us
Away we're never enough we're drowning in clich�s so desperate to
Love we're twisting every word they say so we sleep through the
Days within the heat of passion’s war lust is spilled upon the floor
Staining red the wasted metaphor the selfish need for
Something more claws in vain at closing doors scarring
Faces once adored tracing circles in the violet prison
For violet visions and so the
Broken record plays as you
Throw us away

Play Dead

And boys are so cold they speak without meaning the only time
They talk is in their sleep and girls are a bore their touch
Without feeling their secrets always far too grim to keep and
Up until now you've lived in their shadows trying
Hard to please them but they’ll never change as
Long as they’re breathing thinking hurts
And thoughts don't rhyme to those of us who've
Never tried to find a face behind our lipstick
Smiles and as our pretty faces die our broken
Hearts will wonder why the makeup just won't hide
The scars of time and boys are so cruel so don't let
Them find you tonight and girls are so vain so put
Them behind you tonight I'll cast you a spell a magic
Where everyone plays dead forever and after
Tonight they’ll never remind you

Blue

Plastic blue invitations in my room I've been waiting here
For you reservations made for two sunlight fading black
Tongues speak faster than the car can crash you supply
The rumors and I'll provide the wrath romance
Is breaking every heart in two casting shadows
In the pale shade of blue plastic blue
Conversations in my room saving every tear for you
Trusting every word untrue twilight fading fate changes
Faster than the death of light you supply the envy and
I’ll provide the spite reflections
Cutting every face in two casting
Shadows in the pale shade of blue

Holiday

It’s getting late it all just wanes and
Pales and fades away if we just want
It too much and what a shame if all
There is is all that's gone away
There’s nothing left here for us
Deadlight holiday killing time to make
Us stay hollow as the promises
Of yesterday on and on the music
Plays memories in paraphrase
Falling past my window like the
Morning rain it’s all the same so
Many words remaining always
Too late it never seems worth taking and all the
Days and all the nights lost sleeping and in the
End the secret’s not worth keeping

Nevermind

Five glasses changed my mind seems like the ticking hands are
Taking their time I guess I've been at home for longer than it
Takes to unwind so slap me if I step out of line now in smaller
Spaces careless lust intoxicated away from prying eyes and
Rabid smiles and everything's shattering my invitation was
Involuntary dilation and now I can't recall your name I think
We've met before it was last Christmas on
Our parents' accord you were the young
Man in the costume that was hard to ignore
And I was feeling hopelessly bored... Now your
Conversation's scholarships and occupations you look
So different than before when... Nevermind... Anyway
This reckless violation tarnishing
My reputation has left me nothing
Kind to say
