Violet Leaves The Garden

from Last Days by Classic Red

/

lyrics

Through the fallouts
Through the breakdowns

I burnt my bridges

I burnt the whole fucking town


We used to be maps

You traced boulevards into my skin

Now we’re back

And falling in circles again



I know that you are scared to death

But you’re not the type to run and
I know you say you’re fine

When everything is wrong

I feel like a silhouette

Singing stories to you on the phone 
and
I know I’m the one who left

But I never meant to leave you



So don’t fly away

‘Cause I gave away what you gave to me
And
 don’t tear yourself down

‘Cause I finally figured what’s worth fighting about



I can’t just turn around

We’re suddenly ghosts and

Sleeping with strangers

I re-read what you wrote

And look at every photo we took


And I’m still the grey streets

And I’m still the old places we’d meet

We’re falling in circles again





Violet left the garden don’t you know?

No longer lost

But still so far from home

From Perth, the most remote city in Australia, comes Last Days by Classic Red. The sound of a bar room scrap between David Bowie and Deafheaven, with John Carpenter playing the score and James Blake silently punching himself in the face in the corner. ... more
