The sky is purple

 Blue, The tint of uncertainty you feel looking at waters

Or the tragedy before a healing wound

It’s in her veins, so from the inside she seems cold

Equivalent to the quivering sadness

Watching the bitter truth unfold

Watching yourself waking from a dream of gold

But it was red too

Incomparable to rose coloured glasses

The things you see in Hollywood movies and decide isn’t real

It couldn’t be real

Whenever her eyes met mine and decided to stay

Whenever we tore those systems apart, we lived in

 

I’ll light a fire and let it burn away

With every memory that just wasn’t meant to stay

I’ll look up at the sky and see it’s purple

Yes, to my own fault but still because of you

I’ll die, not giving up either red or blue
