[Verse 1]
You always satisfy
That ignored feeling in my brain
You always know
Exactly what to do to heal my pain
But your notoriety
Is getting the best of you again
I said I'd help you fight your demons
'Cos you helped me with the ones in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Blue skies seem so bitter
When I'm not waking with you
But you love your drugs and liquor
So I only see you in the afternoons
[Chorus]
But you–
You told me that evening
You said that I'm not leaving
You again
And we starred–
And starred at your ceiling
The stars, they were bleeding
And colours above our heads
[Verse 2]
You called me an enigma
And I think I really liked it
I think you saw something in me
But I'vе been called bipolar often
Two souls that need to soften
'Cos wе hide all of our problems
Oh, but I'm not judging you
For the release of all your vices
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, and Blue skies seem so bitter
When I'm not waking with you
But you love your drugs and liquor
So I only see you in the afternoons
[Chorus]
But you–
You told me that evening
You said that I'm not leaving
You again
And we starred–
And starred at your ceiling
The stars, they were bleeding
And colours above our heads
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-ooh
Oh, no, no, no, no
Ooh-ooh-oh– No, ooh, hm
Oh-ooh-ooh
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no
O-o-o-oh-oh– No, hmm, hm
[Pre-Chorus]
And Blue skies seem so bitter
When I'm not waking with you
But you love your drugs and liquor
So I only see you in the afternoons
[Chorus]
But you–
You told me that evening
You said that I'm not leaving
You again
And we starred–
And starred at your ceiling
The stars, they were bleeding
And colours above our heads
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
And colours above our heads
Ooh, hmm, mm
And colours above our heads
Hmm-hmm-mm
Colours above our heads
