​shades of us

Lyrics

[Chorus] You're all I want, couldn't face it I wish you would've let me go Your shades of blue left me painted Violet and indigo True colors shown [Verse 1] Drew me to your light and all my flaws illuminate Searching for my love when you discovered things you hate And I acted like it's nothing, yeah, like everything was fine But it only takes a word from you to change my mind All I can recall still makes me slowly start to choke I know I should have listened, but instead, I only spoke I was the blind turn in your learning curve No one gets what they deserve [Chorus] You're all I want, couldn't face it I wish you would have let me go Your shades of blue left me painted Violet and indigo I got so close, I could taste it A moment from the killing blow I'm all you want, couldn't take it When finally, the colors showed Left on your own [Verse 2] Burning crimson red, I was a moth into your flame It's all just in our nature, I know neither one's to blame 'Cause the deer escapes the hunter as it's stepping off a cliff Every moment was a chase and it has led us right to this Violent And we treat it like a game Don't deny it Found a thrill in causing pain But I looked into your eyes and I lost my nerve No one gets what they deserve [Chorus] You're all I want, couldn't face it I wish you would have let me go Your shades of blue left me painted Violet and indigo I got so close, I could taste it A moment from the killing blow I'm all you want, couldn't take it When finally, the colors showed Left on your own [Bridge] Every shade and tone On our canvas Bloody, scarlet, bleached grey bones Will vanish under black Black [Chorus] You're all I want, couldn't face it I wish you would have let me go Your shades of blue left me painted Violet and indigo I got so close, I could taste it A moment from the killing blow I'm all you want, couldn't take it When finally, the colors showed Left on your own
