Dark Shades of Purple
Purple is the color of suffocation
As Im sitting close to my inner demons
My face seems to fade into a dark shade of purple
I lost hope and was overcome with feelings of regret and sadness
But purple doesnt represent my whole existance
I have a whole palette of emotions
But when i decide to converse with the harsh voices in my head
my palette begins to fade
deep into a dark shade of purple
As i drown in self pitty and paranoia
My face seems to change
deep into a dark shade of purple
As I float on a sea of abandoned ideas
along with thoughts of salvation, my life fades
Deep into a dark shade of purple
