As Blue As Indigo

Light is only measured by the lens of your eye
time is only measured by the length of your life
let me reap what I sew
black and blue indigo
paint me red like violet pink like cyan glow
paint me out the picture
with your burning brush turpentine
let me cast a silhouette on all the love
that you made mineral for
so long my senses are gone
defenses are lost
it's my sentence to serve
my penance to earn
love sent me below
my porcelain cell
if there's poison in the water
there's poison in the well
left to bleed
no more air left to breathe
let me reap what I sew
black and blue indigo
paint me red like violet pink like cyan glow
