Lyrics Purple Pain - A Pregnant Light

Purple Pain

Under a stairwell inside of a dream
Hanging on me like lights on trees
Rain in the summer, fell through the heat
Days were like hours, months like weeks
I came around, jingled my keys
Watched for cops and checked my teeth
Collapsed in the bathroom and slept on the floor
Mentioned nothing of this to anyone I know
Saying everything I want to hear you say
Shine only for me
Constantly reaching
Chasing a feeling
Crawl up the steps to me
Burn all your sins away
Constantly reaching
All of these deep dreams
Always
Walk like men on Death Row do
Following my every move
A straight line, to the end of life
I can’t see the end or when the lights turn on
Squeeze the trigger slow, let it be a surprise
There was a war here, that face can’t lie
Into a hallway, between two beams
Smiling like children and giddy like thieves
Stealing moments
Removing time
Shifting creation to be by my side
Fought without reason
Belief without sight
You opened the door on this purple life
Walk like men on Death Row do
Following my every move
A straight line, to the end of life
I can’t see the end or when the lights turn on
Squeeze the trigger slow, let it be a surprise
