Steven's Creek - Mat Kerekes

Paint a pretty picture

Hang it in our window

Your body in reflection

Moonbeams all over you

I love you like I’m brand new

Often I’ve wondered

If happiness was freedom

I want to be imprisoned

There is purple in the sunset

The sight is so bittersweet

Constant complications

Budding in tragedy

I am making new memories

Ones that are tried and true

No, nothing else ever wins

They only lead back to you

I have forgotten what it felt like

It’s been a long time

Glowing in the dark sky

Starlight in your eyes

We made love out on the lakeside

Mountains surrounding you

And I am feeling just fine

Twisted in the sight of you

There is purple in the sunset

The thought is so bittersweet

Laying in your sweatpants

Or tangled up in the sheets

Always walking like you’re talking

Singing your melody

We are selfish and we don’t care

Take what you want me from me

There is purple in the sunset

The sight is so bittersweet

Turning in your stomach

Whispers in your sleep

There is purple in the sunset

The sight is so bittersweet

We are selfish and we don’t care

Don’t want to be anything
