Dark Blue

(Album: Songs I Wish I Wrote - 2010)

I have (I have) you breathing down my neck (breathing down my neck)
I don't (don't know) what you could possibly expect of this condition so
I'll wait (I'll wait) for the ambulance to come (ambulance to come)
Pick us up off the floor
tell me how anybody thinks under this condition so

Slow down.. this night's a perfect shade of
Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room when I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning just burning down
Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning 'til there's nothing but dark blue..
Have you ever been alone

This flood (this flood) is slowly rising up swallowing the ground
Beneath my feet, tell me how anybody thinks under this condition so
I'll swim (I'll swim) as the water rises up, the sun is sinking down
And now all I can see are the planets in a row
Suggesting it's best that I slow down

Slow down.. this night's a perfect shade of
Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room when I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning just burning down
Dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning 'til there's nothing but

We were boxing
We were boxing the stars
We were boxing
You were swinging for Mars
And then the water reached the West Coast
And took the power lines (the power lines)
And it was me and you
And the whole town under water
There was nothing we could do
It was dark blue

Dark blue (dark blue)
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning just burning down
Dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the room could be burning now there's nothing but dark blue

If you've ever been alone you'll know (you'll know)...
