B
There you were, on the floor,
Cut up and all alone, I’ll help you,
Conceived in a chrome dream,
I was the crease in the shirt that this world wears,

Till I met blue, I was in obscurity,
He said, “Listen up, who do you want to be?”
We could steal a car and listen to the stars,
I can see you’ve choked on them too,
Had enough of late night films,
Just settle for an hour or two,

Oh blue, show me something new,
Oh blue, show me something new,

Chorus:
  A               F#m            E      B
Blue, I’ve got a question every time I hold you,
       A               F#m            E
Yeah blue, I’ve got a question every time
    B
I swallow you,
It’s true.

Spike danced for ten days long
We were just heading for the sun
You shot him down there's blood on my face
His heart's in the right place
What they gonna do to you
What they gonna do

Chorus:
Blue, don't forget the word, I warned you
Oh Blue, don't let them push you,
don't let them destroy you
Meanwhile I'm searching with my brain-blown eyes
See the world through my dirty, lonely,
mixed-up mind
