The Violent Blue Lyrics by Electric President

The Violent Blue

2010

[Verse 1]
The fog rolls on in from the sea
Like a curtain draped from the bolts of heaven
Down here the moon burns through the night
Like the eyes of strays caught in headlights
And I hear you hum a song I'd written
[Verse 2]
And the condensation collects on my feet
And my lungs contract as the curtain thickens
And I hear you say you'd like to see what's down beneath the violent blue
And as you say those words my legs turn leaden
[Verse 3]
And your teeth are two white smears
That cut the gray like light behind the clouds
My heart is flappin' like a bird that's trapped inside a water cage
I hear you laughing, saying "Darling, there's no need to fear"
That you know how to swim
Well, let's see how well I do
[Outro]
This blue ain't blue, It's velvet black
A crooked mirror sky
We hum like stars and flicker off into the blank and void
I feel your limbs, they pull me down
I feel your limbs, they pull me down
And now we're too far gone and we'll never be found
