[Capstan - shades of us lyrics]
You're all I want, couldn't face it
I wish you would've let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
True colors shown
Drew me to your light and
All my flaws illuminate
Searching for my love when you
Discovered things you hate
And I acted like it's nothing, yeah
Like everything was fine
But it only takes a word from
You to change my mind
All I can recall still makes
Me slowly start to choke
I know I should have listened
But instead I only spoke
I was the blind turn in your learning curve
No one gets what they deserve
You're all I want, couldn't face it
I wish you would have let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
I got so close, I could taste it
A moment from the killing blow
I'm all you want couldn't take it
When finally the colors showed
Left on your own
Burning crimson red
I was a moth into your flame
It's all just in our nature
I know neither one's to blame
Cause the deer escapes the hunter as
It's stepping off a cliff
Every moment was a chase and it
Has led us right to this
Violent, and we treat it like a game
Don't deny it
Found a thrill in causing pain
But I looked into your eyes
And I lost my nerve
No one gets what they deserve
You're all I want couldn't face it
I wish you would have let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
I got so close, I could taste it
A moment from the killing blow
I'm all you want couldn't take it
When finally the colors showed
Left on your own
Every shade and tone
On our canvas, bloody, scarlet
Bleached grey bones
Will vanish under black
Black
You're all I want couldn't face it
I wish you would have let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
I got so close, I could taste it
A moment from the killing blow
I'm all you want couldn't take it
When finally the colors showed
Left on your own
I wish you would've let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
True colors shown
Drew me to your light and
All my flaws illuminate
Searching for my love when you
Discovered things you hate
And I acted like it's nothing, yeah
Like everything was fine
But it only takes a word from
You to change my mind
All I can recall still makes
Me slowly start to choke
I know I should have listened
But instead I only spoke
I was the blind turn in your learning curve
No one gets what they deserve
You're all I want, couldn't face it
I wish you would have let me go
Your shades of blue left me painted
Violet and indigo
I got so close, I could taste it
A moment from the killing blow
I'm all you want couldn't take it
When finally the colors showed
Left on your own
