Violet Tide

V6

[Intro — instrumental] [Verse 1] Violet holds its breath Blue begins to bloom Fish in the air Come slipping through Fins brush my cheek Soft as a sigh Nothing here falls Nothing stays dry [Pre-Chorus] Petal by petal The color runs Under my skin Away from the sun [Chorus] Let it swim Let it slide Sweet little poison Changing the tide Blue on my lips Purple within Let it swim Let it in [Instrumental Hook] [Verse 2] Hydrangea shadows Bloom on the wall An ocean is here No water at all Threads of nectar Pull at my sleeve Something so gentle Won’t let me leave [Pre-Chorus] Little by little The edges blur Was that a fin? Was that a word? [Chorus] Let it swim Let it slide Sweet little poison Changing the tide Blue on my lips Purple within Let it swim Let it in [Bridge — low, spoken-sung] No shore No floor A wave Behind the door No sting No sound The room keeps turning Slowly around [Brief Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Let it swim Let it slide Sweet little poison Changing the tide Blue on my lips Purple within Where does the sea end? Where do I begin? Let it swim Let it slide Something is blooming On the inside [Outro] Violet holds its breath Blue begins to bloom Fish in the air I’m drifting too
