Blue spilling off the glass Your shadow folds in half Something humming in the hall Then nothing at all You murmur “Don’t make it mean too much” Then hold me Like you already lost someone Steady blue Everything about you Cold hands in my hand Eyes like bad news Steady blue I still lean into you Even when you fade out Like you always do And it hurts just enough to feel true Rain sticks to your shoes Front door hum Nothing in the room moves Till you do You laugh Like goodbye’s no big deal But your silence Always says what you feel Steady blue Everything about you Cold hands in my hand All fluorescent blue Steady blue I still come back to you Even when your love feels temporary too And it hurts just enough to feel true We were Just flickering stations Two low batteries Dying in synchronization Touch, then static Back to strangers Funny how it felt Like forever for a minute Steady blue What else can I do? Some people burn bright Some just bleed through And you do You do You do
