Lyrics
I'm at violet in the rainbow lullaby
Like Monte Cristo in the sea
There's a shining treasure in front of me
But unlike
The tortured artist it won't come
So easily
Pacing up and down on caffeine high
But down under is out of sight
The closest I can get to the coral sky
Is the rainbow on my wall that splits the night
All these things around me
That are in my line of sight
They comfort me in the night
But there's gotta be something more besides
Oh
The night's long paradise
Oh
The day's long sacrifice
Round and round 'till I suffice
The pounding in my head and the bed bug lice
Oh
Bound to my chair like hallelujah
Oh
I could sit here for a year
Until the sky stopped spinning
Seas turned to ice time drew near
And the cave rolled back
Like the treasure was never there
How do I spill these thoughts out
Left my head on the page I'm going insane
Feels like life's a game that I only just
Figured out how to play
(oh)
And you take your sweet time
As you always do
They had deeper knowledge
Than I ever knew
And they found hallelujah
And now theirs is broken too
Read a chapter
Write a book
Though you knew me
You mistook
My pain for anger
With gentle looks
I used to think
Before I took
But now it's gone
Times overlooked
Used to think
Words are for humming
And songs for singing
But these cords I am strumming
Aren't long enough for the drumming
Inside of my mind and it's running and running like violets into purples at night
Like a summer's stream
Runs into the sea
Seems I too mistook
This babbling brook
All that captivity took
And so much else inside
Oh
The night's long paradise
Oh
The day's long sacrifice
Round and round 'till I suffice
The pounding in my head
and the bed bug lice
Oh
Bound to my chair like hallelujah
Oh
I could sit here for a year
Until the sky stopped spinning
Seas turned to ice time drew near
And the cave rolled back
Like the treasure was never there
My destiny is manifest
In Elysium fields that can attest
The red hot chillis burned so hot
Cremation took its turn
She's ashes to ashes dust to dust
Like aloe to the burn of losing your trust
In the violet underground
In the violent undertones
Of a subsonic sound
And it groans
Oh
The night's long paradise
Oh
The day's long sacrifice
Round and round 'till I suffice
The pounding in my head
and the bed bug lice
Oh
Bound to my chair like hallelujah
Oh
I could sit here for a year
Until the sky stopped spinning
Seas turned to ice time drew near
And the cave rolled back
Like the treasure was never there
I went to San Francisco
And I lost you there
Seems like everyone's
Fallen out of time
And my mind's slipping
My mouth's out of rhymes
What I'm saying is out of line
And I crossed the borderline
To find nothing on the other side
Oh it's alright to let
Your lips go dry as you breathe
You can create an obstacle so easily
Let your worries subside
And autumn's finally gone
Spring has sprung
The winter war is won
I'm waiting for summer to burst
Yeah something hums at the edges
Just you wait and see
Oh just you wait and see
There was a black cloud over me
In the violet sky
In the violet night
In the violet sky
In the violet night
Let me find my self tonight
Let the pale moon drift
Towards the light
And guide my way home
Oh in the violet night
Oh in the violet night
Oh in the violet night
Oh in the violet night
Oh
