Violet

(album: Never The Same - 2022)

I came up on the silent
I've grown up, it's no lie, I just don't publicize it
I can't adjust to the climate
Like you do
I came up on the silent
I've grown up, it's no lie, I just don't publicize it
I can't adjust to the climate
Like you do

Tell me that you love me, that I'm part of your life
Give me some meaning, I've been waiting all night
Tell me that I matter, it'll all be alright, alright
Tell me that you love me, that I'm part of your life
Give me some meaning, I've been waiting all night
Tell me that I matter, it'll all be alright, alright

We all come for the violence
We grow up and grow old and just slip into silence
I'm surplus to requirements
Like you knew
You're depressed, that's cool, anxiety's a tool
To mitigate reality and follow all the rules
You're depressed, that's cool
I wish that I were you

Called your phone and you said whatever
Said your friends saw us together
You can keep this song forever, yeah
I suppose you think you're clever
I don't know if I'll get better
You can keep this song forever

Tell me that you love me, that I'm part of your life
Give me some meaning, I've been waiting all night
Tell me that I matter, it'll all be alright, alright
Tell me that you love me, that I'm part of your life
Give me some meaning, I've been waiting all night
Tell me that I matter, it'll all be alright, alright

You're depressed, that's cool, anxiety's a tool
To mitigate reality and follow all the rules
You're depressed, that's cool
I wish that I were you
You're depressed, that's cool, anxiety's a tool
To mitigate reality and follow all the rules
You're depressed, that's cool
I wish that I were you
