PURPLE AND GREY

I guess you never meant for it to end the way it did
She couldn’t take it any more, that’s why she ran and hid
You should have left her where she was and gone your own sweet way
But what you did is written in the purple and the grey

So now there’s nothing left for you to do but sit and cry
There’ll be no going back to say “I’m sorry” one more time
She’s gone where you can’t touch her… you know that’s where she’ll stay
For what you did is written in the purple and the grey

The awful price she had to pay for injuring your pride
It wasn’t nat’ral causes and it wasn’t suicide
And no amount of posturing can make it all okay
For what you did is written in the purple and the grey

You should have learned to keep it in while you were still at school
You think you’re such a tough guy but you’re not a man at all
And no one gives a shit for any words you have to say
So don’t you try to justify the purple and the grey
