Lyrics Royal Blue - The American Scene

Royal Blue

I was a coward disguised as a lover
Of a beautiful invisible truth
I was a burnin' man
In the well lit corner of an empty room
I was cruel, I was so cruel
I was so cruel, so cruel when I was dyin'
I was cool, I was so-so cool
I was so cool, so cool when I was dyin'
Passed out and indifferent, yeah, I had a vision
Lay here long enough to make it a scene
I was convincin' my new friends I was missin', nothin' and everythin'
Steadily repeat, I was in luv with what they needed
Nothin' and everythin', everythin', everythin', everythin'
Then I told you I was cruel, I was so cruel
I was so cruel, so cruel when I was dyin'
And I was cool, I was so-so cool
I was so cool, so cool when I was dyin'
I was a royal shade of blue, I was a royal shade of blue
(Bridge)
It’s freezin' in Oakland
He’s holdin', I’m coastin'
I should be done for the night
As soon as I’m home
You’ll be up and goin'
In transit but trapped at a light
I was cruel, I was so cruel
I was so cruel, so cruel when I was dyin'
I was cool, I was so-so cool
I was so cool, so cool when I was dyin'
I was a royal shade of blue, I was a royal shade of blue
