In The Red

(album: Purple Crayon - 2021)

Sweet heart, pull me away
Save the pills for another day
When I get out, I'll see you in the storms
We can't numb the pain
We're miles, a million miles away
Just for today, it's where we are

Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red
There's still a hole in my heart
And a storm turning in my head
I wanna leave, I can't
'Cause I believe in the man
Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red

Sweet heart, pull me away
Save the pills for another day
When I get out, I'll see you in the storms
We can't numb the pain
We're miles, a million miles away
Just for today, it's where we are

I don't know why I still believe and spin my wheel away
To me I could lie but no one else believes a word I say
I'm not fond to cry and that's the face that I wear every day
So why would I try [?] and I'll lose every way

Sweet heart, pull me away
Save the pills for another day
When I get out, I'll see you in the storms
(Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red)
We can't numb the pain
We're miles, a million miles away
Just for today, it's where we are
(Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red)

(Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red
Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red
Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red
Seventeen in the dark
I'm seventeen in the red)
