Shades of Blue
Lyrics
I take the feather from the ink
Press it to the page, and watch it bleed
My method may be out of date
Right now the past is what I need
I'm still living in the now
But as I stop to take a breath
I'm using history to determine
What I'll be from here to death
At the window of my memory
Looking out as I review
I see my thoughts, my friends, my songs
My loves and fears
And then there's you
And all the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Meshed with melody
And hidden in plain view
I'll hide the keys and lock my head
Where they lie will not be said
But each time we part
I'll leave you with a clue
In blended shades of blue
I can tell that I'm still breathing
'Cause it's fogging up the pane
And in this breath are hints of death
Diluting memories in my veins
It's stirring up the concept
But I still know right from wrong
And my receptors, still receptive
Tell me this does not belong
I see out of this window
So much beauty, poise, and class
But I must stay here on the inside
And admire through the glass
Through the glass
While all the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Is painted on a page
In blended shades of blue
I'll hide the keys and lock my heart
So that you won't know where to start
But part of me believes that you already do
These blended shades of blue
All roads go home to you
All the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Meshed with melody
And hidden in plain view
I'll hide the keys and lock my head
Where they lie will not be said
And each time we part
I'll leave you with a clue
In blended shades of blue
I take the feather from the ink
Press it to the page, and watch it bleed
My method may be out of date
Right now the past is what I need
I'm still living in the now
But as I stop to take a breath
I'm using history to determine
What I'll be from here to death
At the window of my memory
Looking out as I review
I see my thoughts, my friends, my songs
My loves and fears
And then there's you
And all the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Meshed with melody
And hidden in plain view
I'll hide the keys and lock my head
Where they lie will not be said
But each time we part
I'll leave you with a clue
In blended shades of blue
I can tell that I'm still breathing
'Cause it's fogging up the pane
And in this breath are hints of death
Diluting memories in my veins
It's stirring up the concept
But I still know right from wrong
And my receptors, still receptive
Tell me this does not belong
I see out of this window
So much beauty, poise, and class
But I must stay here on the inside
And admire through the glass
Through the glass
While all the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Is painted on a page
In blended shades of blue
I'll hide the keys and lock my heart
So that you won't know where to start
But part of me believes that you already do
These blended shades of blue
All roads go home to you
All the dreaming that I've done
And never shown to anyone
Meshed with melody
And hidden in plain view
I'll hide the keys and lock my head
Where they lie will not be said
And each time we part
I'll leave you with a clue
In blended shades of blue
