lyrics

Most days it takes everything I have
Just to draw the shades of my eyelids
And get out of bed,
But today, somehow
The colors are all separating
Spectrum's I don't usually see
Like how I'd disappear if you stop looking at me

I can't stand it
Without you I'm transparent,
Barely visible,
And I've faded,
Into the, background of
Tagged images, blocked friends, and broken links

Most days it takes everything I have
Just to draw the shades of my eyelids
And get out of bed,
But today, somehow
The colors are all separating
Spectrum's I don't usually see

When the blue moon passes
And you text at 2 am,
Desperate for conversation,
I can't say I feel too receptive.
I twist the truth and say
I'm doing much better without you
You could always see right through the smoke in the room.

Most days it takes everything I have
Just to draw the shades of my eyelids
And get out of bed,
But today, somehow
The colors are all separating
Spectrum's I don't usually see

Drinking from dry throats,
The room is spinning in time,
Reading from red eyes
I left this note behind the lines,
I shouldn't have to repeat myself,
But need I remind you.
