Lyrics
Purple sky it just never rains
The sky remains consistently purple without raining.
Your silhouette, all I see is flames
The speaker only perceives the outline of someone amidst flames, suggesting intensity or conflict.
New post, new man, don't explain
A reference to a new person or situation, with a hint not to explain.
Just listen to what I have to say
Asking for attention to what the speaker has to express.
You know I never had a choice
Implies a lack of choice or agency in a situation.
You liked your ex, I could hear it in your voice
The speaker could sense the affection for an ex in the person's voice.
Fighting and making all the noise
There was conflict and noise in the relationship.
I should've seen you were texting other boys
The realization or regret of not noticing the signs of infidelity.
I, I would not trade you for anyone else and
Expressing a refusal to exchange the person for anyone else.
I, I know I told you I'd keep to myself and
The speaker promised to keep to themselves, but it's difficult.
I, for all the things I put on the shelf for you
They sacrificed things for the other person.
I, for all the things you ruined yourself it's true
The other person's actions led to self-destruction.
Oh the sky is a pretty purple with a little bit of pink
Describing a visually appealing sky with hints of beauty.
Together again, he will never be home
A sense that being together doesn’t feel like home.
You treat love like it's a game all your silly ways
Accusation of treating love as a game with unserious behavior.
I don't mean to hurt you but I best be on my way
The speaker doesn't want to cause harm but needs to leave.
I've been looking at you through the glass
Observing the person through a barrier (possibly emotional or physical).
Thinking, reminiscing 'bout the past
Reflecting and reminiscing about the past.
Feelings will it stay or will it pass
Uncertainty about whether feelings will endure or fade.
It was all so good but couldn't last
Recognition that good things ended prematurely.
Through the window all I see is rain
Seeing rain through a window, metaphorically indicating sadness.
Double glazed, looking through the pain
Seeing through pain and a protective layer (double-glazed), indicating emotional barriers.
Bitter sweet, it all feels the same
Feelings are a mix of bitterness and sweetness.
Picture perfect but I'm out of frame
Feeling out of place despite seeming perfect.
Looking for you in that glass, trying to get that feeling
Searching for an emotional connection but feeling drowned.
Swallow me up in the waves, I'm not breathing
Feeling overwhelmed and suffocated, unable to breathe.
Queen of the sea, but am I the one you're seeking
Questioning if the speaker is the one the other person truly desires.
Out of my head in a dream, I ain't sleeping
Feeling detached from reality, lost in a dream-like state.
I don't like this mind space, tell myself I'm leaving
Discomfort with the current mental state, wanting to leave.
Diamonds in my mind space, I am not believing
Disbelief in positive thoughts or feelings.
Am I brain dead, and I'm stuck here while I'm grieving
Questioning mental function while experiencing grief.
Has my brain said that I'm good to start achieving yeah
Asking if it's time to move on and start achieving.
Oh the sky is a pretty purple with a little bit of pink
Reiteration of the beauty of the purple sky with a touch of pink.
Together again, he will never be home
Reemphasizing that being together won't feel like home.
You treat love like it's a game all your silly ways
Reproach for treating love flippantly and irresponsibly.
I don't mean to hurt you but I best be on my way
Expressing the need to depart without intending harm.
Oh the sky is a pretty purple with a little bit of pink
Restating the beauty of the purple sky with a hint of pink.
Together again, he will never be home
Reaffirming that being together won't bring a sense of belonging.
You treat love like it's a game all your silly ways
Reiteration of criticism for playing with love carelessly.
I don't mean to hurt you but I best be on my way
Reiterating the intention to leave without causing pain.
