The Color Forty Nine

Lyrics

I’m going to try

As if time seems to quicken in its pace
and the light brings the evening to the day
Last night, I saw you in the rain
Dappled in light, on the ceiling, was your face.

I was tired. I was reeling the line in again
And I took a turn without heading the signs up ahead

I’m going to try, to reveal what i wanted to say
I’m going to try, but I feel like I’m walking away

I stood outside, I was needing something to say
Captured in rhyme, broken meter stalling pace
Then I realized, that words never speak for themselves

I’m going to try to believe that you want me to stay
I’m going to try, to reveal what i want you to say
I’m going to try again but I feel like walking away

There was a time without meaning, without faith
None of the crime, nor the stealing, nor the pain
There were was a night in which all things fell out of place
And a reckoning that carved a line in your face

I’m going to try to believe what you want me to say
I’m going to try, to reveal what i want you to say
I’m going to try again
Though I feel like walking away

Ooooh oooh
