Vivid Light

Vivid Light - Blood Orange

It's a fallen fallacy

Waiting at your window

In the corner reaching out

Nothing makes it better

Still you try and book a room

Hoping something comes to you

And still you're dry

It's like you've never touched

A six string guitar

And the more you write

You never get far

He has seen the vivid light

Thievish in his disdain

As a life of honour falls

I find myself in rage

I don't want to be alone

Naked on the sixth floor

Then the music starts

It's like you've never seen

Your anger at large

And the more you hide

The smaller you are

Perfect nights that still deceive me every week

I couldn't eat

I wasn't falling for the hope

Something that you said you're used to

But now it's sad in May

A harder truth to take in

And I swore I thought you'd make it through the night

So I could see you at noon

Hoping something comes to you

I couldn't wait to bring you home to him

How could I think it's alright?

Like you've never touched

It's like you've never seen

Your anger at large

And the more you hide

The smaller you are

Perfect nights that still deceive me every week

I couldn't eat

I wasn't falling for the hope

Something that you said you're used to

But now it's sad in May

A harder truth to take in

And I swore I thought you'd make it through the night

So I could see you at noon

Hoping something comes to you

I couldn't wait to bring you home to him

How could I think it's alright?

I don't wanna be alone

I don't wanna be alone
