Pink Shades

You said nothing’s working out, everything I try on
Said you lost your pink shades and someone turned the light on
You were standing on the glass, thinking bout one thing
Then the bottom dropped out, you were hanging on to nothing
But keep trying
I know it never looked so bad
But I can around this patch
She’s fighting
Remember when I heard that laugh
Man that wasn’t so far back
When I met you
You were lightning
You were singing in the crowd, thinking nothing by it
So keep trying
Now I’m doing what I can, saying what I should say
You’re taking all your meds and you had a couple good days
Then the lights come on and take you down
You were coming around
But you keep trying
I know it never looked so bad
But I can around this patch
She’s fighting
Remember when I heard that laugh
Man that wasn’t so far back
When I met you
You were lightning
You were singing in the crowd, thinking nothing by it
So keep trying
You catch an edge and now you’re thrashing while you spin
I just take it on the chin
While these walls are closing in
And you wait for it to clot
But you’re hung up with that thought
And I can try to talk you down but you ain’t buying
But I keep trying…
