From the recording Pictures in Blue

Lyrics

Pictures in Blue

Look upon Orion
he says hello
did my message
get lost in the wind

I’ll build a bridge over this
wash my hands
and hold it in

and things are changing way too fast

He paints pictures in shades of red
he took back everything he said
about how grass was greener on my side
and when I paint I paint in blue
because that’s what my books say to do
when I’ve got nothing left in my chest to give
to you

Phone is ringing
it’s still 3 am
I guess our building crashed down
your check came in

I’ll build a bridge over this
cross my hands
and hold it in

and I am never turning back
it’s my turn
