Violet Gun

Johnny walks alone by the roses
Sees how they run by the water
About to find out why you
Said "hey, we need to talk"
But for now he's alright, he's alive, he's in love, it's alright

Soon that warm summer breeze will turn colder
Soon that awfully catchy tune will bore you
Soon the ones you looked up to will seem ordinary

Some other day, you could've walked away
But she came to stay and you never looked the other way

Johnny's nothing like who he once was
Quietly fading away
Can't seem to find his way out, now
Just can't stay and just cant leave
There's this feeling approaching, it's distant but ever so clear

You got cought in a moment of sorrow
Hit by the violet gun and now you're drowning
Your mind's erased and replaced by regretful reminders

Some other day you could've walked away
But she came to stay and you never looked the other way

For every violet gun there's an old song
Trying to spell out the words of how to move on
But in the end you will find that it's nothing but fake tales

Some other day you could've walked away
But she came to stay and you never looked the other way

So I said that I knew what i needed to be, you said there were time left for me
I knew what i needed to be, you said there were time left for me

You cannot walk away now
