Magenta Sky

River flows like usual
It’s nothing remarkable after all
Everything seems so unpredictable
When you breathe under the magenta sky

You live in a life of fame and glory
And somehow you feel lonely, so lonely
This loneliness could kill but you cover it with a smile
When you breathe under the magenta sky

You may sleep, shuddering all night long
With your secret, perhaps you can turn it into song 
This magenta sky has turning you into stone
And in this crowded world you still feel so alone 

Silence is my second home
The clock is ticking and the water is slowly dripping
It swiftly turned into a melody to make me sleep
And in the deep of the night, only breath can be heard

We’re just ordinary people, you and me
Sitting in the park, staring at the magenta sky
In a life with an obscure scheme 
You and I shall live in a dream

We’re looking for a friend to stay stronger
So we can both be wised and stay for each other
Love is much easier to let go than to let go a friend
And together we’ll breathe under the magenta sky
