Ether

                                  I painted it blue

It reminds me of you

Blue like the skies that I saw in your eyes

But I pictured them red as you dwelled in my head

As you

I look over my shoulder

Look back into your eyes

And drifting away I've got nothing to say

My hands are tied

My hands are tied

They're tied

Remember the first flash of anger

I watched as they clouded to grey

As I saw you grow cold

Found my sap pour away

And I swallowed my pride

Swallowed my pride

Swallowed my pride

Stemmed the anger inside

When it died

I stand in the shadows

Look up at the sky

Not to remember

The passing of time

Surrounded by ether

I almost forget that you

I look over my shoulder

Look back into your eyes

And drifting away I've got nothing to say

My hands were tied

My hands were tied
