To Struggle With Light Colors
(album: Good Night, Witness Light)
A violet night kept you alive
But you never had the will to stay here
I was possessed by your eyes
But you fell asleep most of the time
So I learned to speak myself
While you were in dreams somewhere else so.....
Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I´ll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow
She always said I was too silent
And I never found the words to entertain her
Maybe I tried just too hard to always be clever
While she always starved for simple words to keep her safe
To keep her safe
Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I´ll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow
Maybe maybe if I don´t see you now
I´ll keep myself shattered somehow
Oh in every way, every way somehow
A man who speaks with a silver tongue
Yes he whispered to me something sweet that swept me away
I sold your soul to a pack of wolves
For two pounds of pride and a lifetime supply of regrets
Regrets
A violet night kept you alive
But you never had the will to stay here
Maybe it´s all for the best
So darling don´t lose any sleep over me
Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I´ll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow
Maybe maybe if I don´t see you now
I´ll keep myself shattered somehow
Oh in every way, every way somehow
