That mug you left—it’s on the shelf I swear I just forgot myself It’s chipped and cheap, I barely see It’s not like it reminds of we Your hoodie too—the one in blue It doesn’t whisper things we knew I wear it now and then, that’s all Not like I care – just hung to stall And when that stupid radio Plays that one song from years ago You know the one—"da ba dee..." I just change channels casually I’m not blue, that’s not my shade I’m not the one who stayed and prayed I’m not the one who breaks at night Just ‘cause the signs shine blue light It’s not your fault—I’m not that guy Blue’s just a color, not worth a cry You had blue eyes—but that was luck Not like I ever gave a—fuck They looked like pools, or maybe glass But yeah, that phase? It's long since passed And if I flinch when sirens pass Or hate blue ink on greeting cards It’s just a quirk, it’s just some wires Not memories or burned-out fires I don’t regret, I don’t replay I never think of that one day Maybe just today for this one song And when kids hum that chorus tune It’s not like I leave rooms too soon I’m not blue, that’s not my tone I live just fine, I sleep alone I laugh, I eat, I go outside Without a voice stuck in my mind It’s not about you—never was It’s just that blue keeps playing us So wear your colors, paint your skies I’m fine, I swear—no need for lies But if that song plays one more time... I’ll be just fine. It’s not a cliff. It’s just the light.
