Purple Lyrics by Tanith

2020

[Intro]
(One, two, three four)
(Ah)
She was purple, purple
She was purple, purple
She was

[Verse 1]
I give my heartfelt condolences
To the men
Who tried to tame her soul
She was a wild young heart
With a crippling fear of getting old
She had a tongue like Russian roulette
You’d never know which bullet you’ll get
An attraction to the risk
And she fed off the thrill of it

[Chorus]
She was a purple enigma
Violet spark (Violet spark)
The kind that blossomed with fury in the dark
She was a breed like you’d never seen before (Before)
She was a breed they’d never seen before
And when the herders said find your shade of grey
Well she burned brighter just to throw it in their face
She was an unapologetic shade of who she was (She was)
She was purple

(Ah, ah, ah)

[Verse 2]
She was a silent rebellion
Not the type to try and cause a scene
Dangerously aware that she didn’t need a king
To be a queen
She knew that beauty lies in the mind
That everything else will fade with time
She had a love affair with words
Nylon strings and the beauty of verse

[Chorus]
She was a purple enigma
Violet spark (Purple)
The kind that blossomed with fury in the dark
She was a breed like you’d never seen before
She was a breed they’d never seen before
And when the herders said find your shade of grey
Well she burned brighter just to throw it in their face
She was an unapologetic shade of who she was
[Bridge]
Raised on the wonder and fire of Freddie
Her heart was a rhapsody in its own right
Raised on defiance of an early Austen
A revolutionary before her time (Time)
Cause in a world filled with suits and ties
Only interested in dollar bills and white collar lies
She knew that beauty lies in the minds of those filled with poetry

[Chorus]
She was a purple enigma
Violet spark
The kind that blossomed with fury in the dark
She was a breed like you’d never seen before
She was a breed they’d never seen before
And when the herders said find your shade of grey
Well she burned brighter just to throw it in their face
She was an unapologetic shade of who she was
She was purple, purple
She was purple, purple
She was purple, purple
She was
She was
