Lyrics Developing Negative - The Color Morale, Craig Owens

Developing Negative

I never knew exactly how this could feel
Retelling stories from a movie life from reel to real
You’re still slowly developing and you’ll die
If you’re exposed to too much light at one time
People like us have learned to feel at home
In the darkest corners of their minds
What hurts me the most is hiding the scars across my body
And not knowing if they had a reason to close
You and I know the price now its time to make change
Listen decisions will need to be remade
I told you sometimes days like these don’t change
I know you and I we have the same trouble keeping blood in our veins
Addiction its not so much about us overcoming
Sometimes maybe it’s more about us just replacing
Look you and I will always have this song
Just like I know I had a reason to write it
Its not just a breathless sing along
I will relive this so that you’ll never have to feel alone
I will relive this when you’re alone
I will be the voice inside of your headphones
I told you sometimes days like these don’t change
I know you and I we have the same trouble keeping blood in our veins
I know some days I wish I could just erase the past
But if I hide my wounds ashamed then you’d never know we’re the same
Let my darkness illuminate take my hand and let me light your way
Just keep the blood inside your veins
You and I know the price now its time to make change
Listen decisions will need to be remade
I told you sometimes days like these don’t change
I know you and I we have the same trouble keeping blood in our veins
