Baby Blue
[Verse]
Boxing shadows in my sleep
It's the company I keep
The perfect exercise as I grow older
I can't believe what God has done
He took the heat out of the sun
And now it seems the world is growing colder
[Chorus]
Between the pleasure and the pain
Wishing your life away
No more sinister than sane
Briefing your life away
Between the flicker and the flame
No-one can explain
Baby blue is born again
[Verse]
I'm looking for some place to go
Sucking out screams in stereo
Before my very eyes, I saw her drowning
Keep my daughter in a jar
She can't get out she won't go far
Her heart is in my mouth, but still keep pounding
[Chorus]
Between the pleasure and the pain
Wishing your life away
No more sinister than sane
Briefing your life away
Between the flicker and the flame
No-one can explain
Baby blue is born again
[Chorus]
Between the pleasure and the pain
Wishing your life away
No more sinister than sane
Briefing your life away
Between the flicker and the flame
No-one can explain
Baby blue is born again
