So I Buy
Spitting Purple: Exploring Unrequited Love and the Quest for Something More
Lyrics
Where'd you buy that lie of yours?
Questioning where the falsehood originated from
Was there an end cap on the aisle for something more?
Wondering if there was an enticing display for something more meaningful
Something greater, good won't do
Desiring something significant, not settling for mere goodness
A shelf life later and still no takers
Despite time passing, the fabricated concept remains unaccepted
Not everybody takes to you
Realizing not everyone is receptive or accepting
So here I am, spitting purple
Feeling emotionally intense or overwhelmed
Close my eyes and see bright circles
Visualizing vibrant and vivid imagery with closed eyes
First snow falls and yeah, it's pretty
Appreciating the beauty of the first snowfall
But it always makes the world seem
However, it diminishes the sense of ownership of the world
A little less mine
Feeling a reduced sense of possession over the world's beauty
Or so I buy
Choosing to believe in a perception or narrative despite doubts
We love our friends with all we have
Expressing whole-hearted affection for friends despite expectations of reciprocation
We're not normal, we know the world won't love us back
Acknowledging that being different won't guarantee mutual affection from the world
So here I am, spitting purple
Reiterating emotional intensity or feeling overwhelmed
Close my eyes and see bright circles
Continuing to imagine vivid and vibrant imagery with closed eyes
First snow falls and yeah, it's pretty
Enjoying the aesthetic beauty of the first snowfall
But it always makes the world seem
Yet, it causes a diminishment in feeling connected to the world
A little less mine
Further reducing the sense of ownership over the world's beauty
A little less mine
Continued sense of diminishing ownership over beauty or experiences
How long can you court disaster?
Questioning the duration one can pursue risky situations
I guess I'll get that candy ring from the corner store
Consideration of obtaining a cheap, temporary symbol of commitment
How much of this feeling changes after
Wondering how much emotions change after realizing there's nothing more
You look in, you look in and see there's no more
Realizing there's nothing deeper or additional to discover
So here I am, spitting purple
Reiteration of feeling emotionally intense or overwhelmed
Close my eyes and see bright circles
Continuing to visualize vibrant and vivid imagery with closed eyes
First snow falls and yeah, it's pretty
Appreciating the aesthetic appeal of the first snowfall
But it always makes the world seem
Yet, it consistently diminishes the sense of ownership of the world
A little less mine
Continued decrease in personal ownership of the world's beauty
Less mine
Emphasizing the reduction in feeling ownership of experiences or beauty
So I buy
Choosing to accept or believe in a specific narrative despite doubts
So I buy
Repetition highlighting the act of choosing to believe in something despite uncertainty
So I buy
Further emphasizing the act of choosing a perception or narrative
(So here I am, spitting purple)
Recalling emotional intensity or feeling overwhelmed
So I buy (Close my eyes and see bright circles)
Reiterating the act of visualizing vibrant and vivid imagery with closed eyes
