Colours Run - Perpetual Motion lyrics

rate me

Morning drowned you in the silence

Washed up on a traffic island

On my shoulder

Sighing I'm so tired

And the thing that hurts you is the beauty

To be denied it feels like cruelty

But here inside it

There must be somewhere that we can hide

Sailing in style

Our needles and blue pills

For sowing the holes in our reverie

So why can't we linger awhile

Our heads in the white sand

Our hearts on the open sea

Before they flay you of your daydreams

Grind your diamonds into hay seeds

Won't we find out

How the beautiful tragedy ends

As we share our last desperate kiss

I'm just glad we could go out like this

With our backs to the wall

Dreaming of freedom

Sailing in style

Our needles and blue pills

For sowing the holes in our reverie

Oh, why can't we linger awhile

Our heads in the white sand

Our hearts, well they'll always be

Stones in the ocean

Worn smooth by perpetual motion

And I'll drown if I ever leave you

This far down, there's nowhere to flee to

Sailing in style

Our needles and blue pills

Have washed me as high as I'll ever be

So why can't we stay all our lives

Our heads in the white sand

Our hearts on the open sea

Yeah, we left our hearts

On the open sea
