I try to live in black and white
But i m so blue
I d like to mean it when i say
I m over you
But thats still not true
And i m still so blue

I thought we were the same
Birds of a feather, now i m ashamed
I told you a lie, desole, mon amour
I m trying my best
Dont know whats in store
Open up the door

In the back of my mind
I m still overseas
A bird in a cage
Thought you were made for me

I try (i m not what)
To live in black and white
But i m so blue
But i m not what you need

I d like (not what you need)
To mean it when i say
I m over you

But thats still not true, true
And i m still so blue (and its not true)
I m true blue, true blue
I m true blue

Blue

You were born bluer than a butterfly
Beautiful and so deprived of oxygen
Colder than your fathers eyes
He never learned to sympathize with anyone

I dont blame you
But i cant change you
Dont hate you
But we cant save you

You were born reaching
For your mothers hands
Victim of your fathers plans
To rule the world
Too afraid to step outside
Paranoid and petrified
Of what you ve heard

But they could say the same bout me
I sleep bout three hours each night means
Only 21 a week now, now

And i could say the same bout you
Born blameless, grew up famous too
Just a baby born blue now, now

I dont blame you
But i cant change you
Dont hate you
But we cant save you

Its over now
Its over now
Its over now
