In Violet - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

You never had it, I never got it back

I saw you wasting everything you ever had

In violet, bargain your life for a flower

The last of your honor, to die thinking you were a coward

I loved you wrong in the sinking sun

Said I was a God and I'm not sure that you bought it

The earth moved on and I'm scared of the thought

That I'm selling you on it

I had it, I want it back

I'm gluing the pieces into a book I have

I know that it's sweet, black cherry pit

I know what it eats, I know it exhausts me to carry it

I loved you wrong in the sinking sun

Said I was a God and I'm not sure that you bought it

The earth moved on and I'm scared of the thought

That I'm selling you on it

On a sinking boat

Why don't you know

That a plant won't grow in

The dead of the ocean

For the sake of all that is keeping us floating

And our eyes open

A running engine

Through to the ending

A divine omen

(I loved you wrong in the sinking sun)

(Said I was a God and I'm not sure that you bought it)

(I loved you wrong in the sinking sun)

(Said I was a God and I'm not sure that you bought it)

(I loved you wrong in the sinking sun)

(Said I was a God and I'm not sure that you bought it)
