Lyrics for In Violet
You never had it and never got it back I saw you wasting everything you ever had In violet, bargain your life for a flower The last of your honor to die thinking you were a coward I love you more than the sinking sun Said I was a god, and I'm not sure that you bought it The earth moved on, and I'm scared of the thought That I'm sailing you off I had, I want it back I'm gluing the pieces into the book I have I know that it's sweet, black cherry pit I know what it eats, I know it exhausts me to carry it I love you more than the sinking sun Said I was a god and I'm not sure that you bought it The earth moved on, and I'm scared of the thought That I'm sailing you on I'm a sinking boat, why don't you know? That a plant won't grow in the deadly ocean For the sake of all, that's keeping us floating And our eyes open I'm running an engine to the end of the road I love you more than the sinking sun Said I was a god and I'm not sure that you bought it I love you more than the sinking sun Said I was a god and I'm not sure that you bought it I love you more than the sinking sun Said I was a god and I'm not sure that you bought it
