Pink Shades - Wild Rivers

You said nothing’s working out, everything I try on

Said you lost your pink shades and someone turned the light on

You were standing on the glass, thinking bout one thing

Then the bottom dropped out, you were hanging on to nothing

But keep trying

I know it never looked so bad

But I can around this patch

She’s fighting

Remember when I heard that laugh

Man that wasn’t so far back

When I met you

You were lightning

You were singing in the crowd, thinking nothing by it

So keep trying

Now I’m doing what I can, saying what I should say

You’re taking all your meds and you had a couple good days

Then the lights come on and take you down

You were coming around

But you keep trying

I know it never looked so bad

But I can around this patch

She’s fighting

Remember when I heard that laugh

Man that wasn’t so far back

When I met you

You were lightning

You were singing in the crowd, thinking nothing by it

So keep trying

You catch an edge and now you’re thrashing while you spin

I just take it on the chin

While these walls are closing in

And you wait for it to clot

But you’re hung up with that thought

And I can try to talk you down but you ain’t buying

But I keep trying…
