The Song is Blue

from Life & Death by Boab Millar

/

lyrics

Sleeping with someone
And breaking the rule of thumb
Come suddenly from out of the blue
Making your bed is a strange kind of step
For somebody who doesn't know what it means
Drinking in all kinds of madness
Taking all of their sadness

The song is so blue
She's turning from you
To the other side of the world in your bed
The letter you saved
Sort of gave it away
You won't try to be hard ever again
Sinking in all kinds of drama
Smiling but just for the camera

Lately she's wearing a frown
Digging and prying and she won't stop crying
The song takes a turn for the worse
The shame of her asking to be someone that she
Believes she'd be better off as

The songs turning once more
As she tears what she once wore
Forgetting that it was once her favourite gift
The mood matches indigo
But her life is so-so
She's talking now but you cannot speak
Drinking in all of her candour
Wishing is all that you hoped for

Lately she's talking you down
Cheating and lying and still won't stop crying
The song makes a line for the door
Maybe and one day she'll try for the clean way
Believing she'll see so much more
