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
Dwelt 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 gray
As I saw you grow cold felt myself slip away
And I swallow my pride, swallow my pride
Swallow my pride, stem the anger inside

Well, 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 tired
