Violet Room

Casey Stratton

From your violet room I see your shadow

From your violet sky I close my eyes

Somewhere along the line I beat the devil

We were caught up in a ring of our own disguises

So I run faster than I thought

And there you call our for me



Will wonders never cease to amaze me?

The way I collied with what you need

I pulled you too close

I must learn to let you go

And find my way back to the land of dreams



From the aging dawn there comes a shadow

And from the yellow sand I see my life

Parading aroudn through darkened windows

I was caught up in a ring of my own disguises

So I ran further than I thought

And you can't find me



This is where we contemplate,

Pontificate existing further

Out into the corners of the room

Where we're kept hidden

This is where I speculate, articulate

That I am drifting up, slowly up, slowly up
