"Blue Eternal" lyrics
Said The Sky & Motion City Soundtrack Lyrics
Listen up
This isn't an uncommon story
A little late, in fact, completely overdue
I tell you everything
To keep myself a work in progress
To radiate eternal blue
I'm braindead on the matter of love
L-O-V-E deleted D, LOVED
I blamed addiction
For my eviction
Created fictions to make sense of
My heart, unanchored, an ugly mess
A violent instrument of excess
It's no excuse
Just an explanation
Examinations of my distress
I know it's too late for me
To rewrite my history
I hope everything I've done
Is something you can learn from
Listen up
This isn't an uncommon story
A little late, in fact, completely overdue
I tell you everything
To keep myself a work in progress
To radiate eternal blue
Shame spirals in defense of love
Always looking for somebody to shove
It's dialectic
Unsympathetic
But quite frenetic at the mention of
Another side of the sober truth
Missed perceptions of a wasted youth
Damn the fathers
An expatriation
It's a demonstration but it's not enough
I know it's too late for me
To rewrite my history
I hope everything I've done
Is something you can learn from
Listen up
This isn't an uncommon story
A little late, in fact, completely overdue
I tell you everything
To keep myself a work in progress
To radiate eternal blue
If there's a chance
To make amends
I'll accept what I can get
Understand
There's no defense
When violence is the work of men
Rearrange every letter
Until your world starts getting better
I'd gladly sink to the bottom
So you can radiate eternal blue
Listen up
It's such a common story
I've told you everything
I am a work in progress
Eternal blue
This isn't an uncommon story
A little late, in fact, completely overdue
I tell you everything
To keep myself a work in progress
To radiate eternal blue
I'm braindead on the matter of love
L-O-V-E deleted D, LOVED
I blamed addiction
For my eviction
Created fictions to make sense of
My heart, unanchored, an ugly mess
A violent instrument of excess
It's no excuse
Just an explanation
Examinations of my distress
I know it's too late for me
To rewrite my history
I hope everything I've done
Is something you can learn from
Listen up
This isn't an uncommon story
A little late, in fact, completely overdue
I tell you everything
To keep myself a work in progress
To radiate eternal blue
Shame spirals in defense of love
Always looking for somebody to shove
It's dialectic
Unsympathetic
But quite frenetic at the mention of
Another side of the sober truth
Missed perceptions of a wasted youth
Damn the fathers
An expatriation
It's a demonstration but it's not enough
I know it's too late for me
To rewrite my history

So you can radiate eternal blue
Listen up
It's such a common story
I've told you everything
I am a work in progress
Eternal blue
