Wild Rivers - Pink Shades

You said nothing's working out
Everything I try on
Said you lost your pink shades
And someone turned the light on
You were standing on the glass
Thinking 'bout one thing
Then the bottom dropped out
You were hanging onto nothing

But keep trying
I know it never looked so bad
But I can see around this patch
And she's fighting
Remember when I heard that laugh
Man, that wasn't so far back
When I met you
You were lightning
You were singing in the crowd
Thinking nothin' by it
So keep trying

Now I'm doing what I can, saying what I should say
You're taking all your meds and you had a couple good days
Then the lights come on and take you down
You were coming around

But you keep trying
I know it never looked so bad
But I can see around this patch
And she's fighting
Remember when I heard that laugh
Man, that wasn't so far back
When I met you
You were lightning
You were singing in the crowd
Thinking nothin' by it
So keep trying

You catch an edge
And now you're thrashing while you spin
I just take it on the chin
While these walls are closing in
And you wait for it to clot
You're still hung up with that thought
And I can try to talk you down
But you ain't buying

But I keep trying
I know it never looked so bad
But I can see around this patch
And she's fighting
Remember when I heard that laugh
Man, that wasn't so far back
When I met you
You were lightning
You were singing in the crowd
Thinking nothin' by it
So keep trying
