Purple and green The purpose of green and gloom And days were allowed to creep in and out of you Just stare into my eyes Make me pay the price and run Steady as a rock She'll surely outlive the sun ♪ Traces of your eyes You left me traces of the sky I never knew And in the place we used to hide You left me traces of our pride I never knew Purple and green You've stolen my wings before Children on their knees Begging us to fight their war Before dawn ♪ Bodies are bruised Your future is used and foreseen And oceans away You pray away your game to be clean ♪ Traces of your eyes You left me traces of the sky I never knew And in the place we used to hide You left me traces of our pride I never knew Traces of your eyes You left me traces of the sky I never knew And in the place we used to hide You left me traces of our pride I never knew
