Violets

Paint a smile on your face
reach up high and push the clouds away
and then take it on the chin
cause I am not your friend
when I feel like dying

I'm hiding violets
behind my eyelids
to cover the world in a blueish haze
I never wanted
to be this haunted
out in the clear blue light of day
I'm hiding violets

Tell your hands to let it go
tell your eyes to look down below
when you're floating in the trees
a victim to the breeze
you're not exactly flying

I'm hiding violets
behind my eyelids
to cover the world in a blueish haze
I never wanted
to be this haunted
out in the clear blue light of day
I'm hiding violets

everywhere just effigies,
representatives
kaleidoscopic tapestry the impression gives

there's nothing really beautiful
there is nothing true
if I see the world just how I want
just a shade of blue

I'm hiding violets
behind my eyelids
to cover the world in a blueish haze
I never wanted
to be this haunted
out in the clear blue light of day
I'm hiding violets
I'm hiding violets
behind my eyelids
to cover the world in a blueish haze
