You've heard these words because they're written on my face

Like they were carved in stone that time cannot erase.

What secrets lie behind an awful shade of blue ?

In a place of reckoning I keep returning to.

And we return back to the place where words belong, in an awful shade of blue.

I sit and listen to an awful shade of blue,

And through the creeping dust that I am listening to

Are the words that I once loved and meant the world to me.

But they are only now a distant memory.

And we return back to a place where words belong, in an awful shade of blue.

There's no sense in cryin', it is only a shade of blue.
