blue
i’m turning blue
right in front of you
can’t you see?
red
i’m pumping red
all throughout my chest
can’t you feel me?
run
i’ve got to run
looks like you’re having so much fun
without me
i’m fine
i’m so fine
i’d just rather pass the time
without you near me
and all the things i never said
the bleeding heart you’ve never met
i let you walk away from it
i let you turn your face instead
but i’m begging you to let me in
i’m begging you to let me in
i’m wishing that i’d let you see
the image that is haunting me
the image that is haunting me
the image that is haunting me
the image that is haunting me
the image staring back at me
will you ever know this part of me?
will you ever know this part of me?
will you ever see the things i see?
if you see it will it set me free?
if you see it will it set me free?
if you see it will it set me free?
if you see it will it set me free?
if you see it will it set me free?
blue
my old friend blue
always sticking right by you
holding all your truth
my old friend blue
