“Blue” rolled off my tongue
Just like the paint rolling down my bedroom walls
And I’ll paint my nails blue
And I’ll dye my hair blue
Until I’m blue
Blue from choking on your empty promises
Blue from drowning in my tears
And I’ll be as blue as your eyes
When you stared at the sky
A soft baby light blue, like when you first loved me
And a dark tragic blue, like when you first left me.
A young couple bound by a seemingly ideal love that begins to unravel as unexpected opportunities spin them down a volatile and violent path and threaten the future they had always imagined.
