lyrics

Alli and I - Blue Skies

I see it falling apart, if I forget to leave my heart,
Then I promise I won’t fail, to send it in the mail.

You need to throw away this melody, and say these words in your head…

God, don’t give up on me now.
You break my jaw, I’ll close my mouth.
My life will get clearer,
There’s blue skies in the mirror.

A broke jaw, a broken heart, a voice of silence is where I’ll start.
A heartless girl who sits alone, a heartless girl who has no home.

She needs to throw away this melody, and say these words in her head…

God, don’t give up on me now.
You break my jaw, I’ll close my mouth.
My life will get clearer,
There’s blue skies in the mirror.

I’ll throw up my hands and grab the sky,
Tear a cloud down down, from on high,
Hands in my pockets, mind on bluer skies.
She screams at the mirror as she cries,
The bottle brings more tears to her eyes,
Hand on the razor, mind on suicide.
She can’t find a heart inside her chest,
She’s lost the lungs that hold her breath,
She can’t grasp the air to say I love you,
The lack of air inside her lungs I fear,
Results in a lack to call you dear.

God, don’t give up on me now.
You break my jaw, I’ll close my mouth.
My life will get clearer,
There’s blue skies, blue skies.
God, don’t give up on me now.
You break my jaw, I’ll close my mouth.
My life will get clearer,
There’s blue skies in the mirror.
