Lyric

Tell me what color you can see in me tonight

To me it always turns a little blue

I woke up by the window and the morning stayed so blue

And my coffee had gone cold while I was thinking about you

They keep trying to paint us into clean and quiet lines

But that was never who we are, we were never that designed

The world keeps asking for grey, for quiet and the same

But this color will not fade, it still remembers my name

So let us stay this blue for as long as we are alive

Forever holding something true, the only color in the light

And before the world can fade us into nothing black and white

Let us run so far away that we will never look behind

They say the rarest colors can barely survive out here

So they keep telling me to calm down and to disappear

But my heart still holds a color that refuses to drown

And the deeper that the water goes the clearer it is found

The world keeps asking for grey, for quiet and the same

But this color will not fade, it still remembers my name

So let us stay this blue for as long as we are alive

Forever holding something true, the only color in the light

And before the world can fade us into nothing black and white

Let us run so far away that we will never look behind

Even if my quiet voice never finds its way to you

Even if the letter that I wrote never makes it through

We are still right here together and we are still alive

So please don't let them fade us out tonight

So let us stay this blue for as long as we are alive

Forever holding something true, the only color in the light

And before the world can fade us into nothing black and white

We will run so far away that we will never look behind

And we will hold this blue tonight

We are still so blue tonight
