Turn Me Blue
V1.
There’s a voice somewhere telling me not to listen
But you just shout, you won’t get out of here.
You open those pretty lips only to hurt me again
So hide way down, c’mon, hide way down here.
Ch1.
Shake the windows,
Turn over tables
Laugh in the face of my fear
(Though I’m not quite able).
So much time spent,
Trying to repent
Trying to break out of you,
Why do you turn me blue?
V2.
Your face turns a thousand colours, green to red
Stiffen that grin, maybe it will stick one day.
You keep driving me, pushing me to the edge
So don’t ask when you already know I’m not okay.
Coffee rings at my bedside, yeah, all because of you
Clocks tick, tick, ticking away, my eyes burn through
Sit watching, doing nothing, see what you do?
Clock keep tick, tick, ticking away…
Ch2.
Shake the windows,
Crash into tables
Kissing me, kissing me, I’m gonna lose
(I’m incapable).
How much time I spent,
Learning about resentment
Yet I still empower you,
And I’m begging you to turn me blue.
V3.
And I guess I was asking for it,
There’s a hole in my heart you inhabit.
Kissing me, and tick, tick, ticking the time away.
I guess I got what was coming to me,
It’s just absurdity, I can’t face my fears
So hide way down, c’mon, hide way down here.
Ch1 + Ch2 – repeat
Ex.
So hide way down, c’mon, hide way down here
Away from you, turning me blue…
Yeah, hide way down, oh, hide way down here
And I keep begging you, yeah I’m begging you to turn me blue….
