Lilac
I knew a guy lived in my house
He knew the times were passing by
Looked out the window, feeling sorrow
Many years went by without a proper goodbye Nothing To say, the skies are grey
The clothes were burned with the smell of lilac wine
He gazed at the swing he used to love
Turn to his neck tied high above
Paint red for once (for once)
Never took you for one
The skies are clear
Even when you're here
Go back In style
Only thing left to thrive
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
I knew this guy never left my house
I knew his time never crossed my eyes
And now I'm left with, pollution
His wife had left turned his house red
Filled with anger, shame and regret
The war was over
But not in his head
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
The skies are clear
Even when you're here
Go back In style
Only thing left to thrive
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
He knew the times were passing by
Looked out the window, feeling sorrow
Many years went by without a proper goodbye Nothing To say, the skies are grey
The clothes were burned with the smell of lilac wine
He gazed at the swing he used to love
Turn to his neck tied high above
Paint red for once (for once)
Never took you for one
The skies are clear
Even when you're here
Go back In style
Only thing left to thrive
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
I knew this guy never left my house
I knew his time never crossed my eyes
And now I'm left with, pollution
His wife had left turned his house red
Filled with anger, shame and regret
The war was over
But not in his head
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
The skies are clear
Even when you're here
Go back In style
Only thing left to thrive
Paint red for once
Never took you for one
