The American Scene - Royal Blue Lyrics

The American Scene – Royal Blue Lyrics

I was a coward disguised as a lover
Of the beautiful invisible truth
I was a burning man in the well lit corner of an empty room

CHORUS:
I was cruel
I was so cruel when I was dying
I was cool
I was so cool when I was dying

Passed out and indifferent
Yea I had a vision
Lay there long enough to make it a scene
I was convincing my new friends I was missing
Nothing and everything
Steadily repeat I was in love with what they needed
Nothing and everything, everything, everything,

CHORUS:
Then I told you I was cruel
I was so cruel when I was dying
I was cool
I was so cool when I was dying

I was a royal shade of blue
I was a royal shade of blue

It’s freezing in Oakland
He’s holding
I’m coasting
I should be done for the night
As soon as I’m home you’ll be up and going
In transit but trapped at a light

CHORUS:
I was cruel
I was so cruel when I was dying
I was cool
I was so cool when I was dying

I was a royal shade of blue
I was a royal shade of blue
