[Verse 1]
You used to light up like a spark
Now you're blue, treading water in the dark
Calm like the company of strangers in an elevator
Hoping the doors will open soon
[Chorus 1]
But that's just you when you are blue
But you can give me your pain
I'll bear it faithfully, I'll give you my name
And let you get close to me so don't be ashamed
Love is supposed to be the thing that remains
But everything changes when you bleed blue
[Verse 2]
I used to scale your city walls
I looked away and you built them far too tall
Numb like a world war veteran coming home to greet his family
Hoping they never find the truth
[Chorus 2]
But that's just you when you are blue
I wish you'd give me your pain
I'll bear it faithfully, I'll give you my name
And let you get close to me so don't be ashamed
Love is supposed to be the thing that remains
But everything changes when you bleed blue
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Come on and give me your pain
We are one and the same
Come on and give me your pain
We are one and the same
We're both blue
Come on and give me your pain
We are one and the same
We are one and the same
We're both blue
