Dark Blue Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have, I have you
Breathin' down my neck, breathin' down my neck
I don't, don't know
What you could possibly expect
Under this condition
So I'll wait, I'll wait
For the ambulance to come, ambulance to come
Pick us up off the floor
What did you possibly expect under this condition

[Pre-Chorus]
So slow down
This night's a perfect shade of...

[Chorus]
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room
When I'm here with you?
I said the world could be burnin', burnin' down
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room?
Well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burnin'
'Til there's nothin' but dark blue
Just dark blue

[Verse 2]
And this flood, this flood is slowly rising up
Swallowin' the ground beneath my feet
Tell me how anybody thinks under this condition
So I'll swim, I'll swim
As the water rises up, sun is sinkin' down
And now all I can see are the planets in a row
Suggestin' it's best that I

[Pre-Chorus]
Slow down
This night's a perfect shade of...

[Chorus]
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room
When I'm here with you?
I said the world could be burnin', burnin' down
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room?
Well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burnin'
Dark blue

[Bridge]
We were boxin', we were boxin' the stars
We were boxin' (We were boxin')
You were swingin' from Mars
And then the water reached the West Coast
And took the power lines (The power lines)
And it was me and you (This could last forever)
And the whole town under water
There was nothin' we could do
It was dark blue

[Chorus]
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room
When I'm here with you?
I said the world could be burnin', burnin' down
Dark blue, dark blue
Have you ever been alone in a crowded room?
Well I'm here with you

[Outro]
I said the world could be burnin'
'Til there's nothin' but dark blue
Just dark blue
If you've ever been alone in the dark blue
If you ever been alone, you'll know, you'll know

What did Jack's Mannequin say about "Dark Blue"?

“With "Dark Blue,” the lyric was almost entirely different when it was written. I think the original lyric, which was just a placeholder, was “I’m black and blue.” I had already recorded almost the entire Transit record that that point. I had brought it to a label more or less finished, but I had an...
