[Intro]
Purple on my tongue
Purple on my nails
Purple in my cup
Drippin' off the rails (hey!)
[Verse 1]
Violet hoodie
Grape gum snap
Sneakers bruised like a midnight map
Lip gloss smudge on a plastic straw
Laugh too loud, break every law
Lavender lights in the backroom haze
You twist your ring while the floorwave sways
I got a pocket full of ticket stubs
Heartbeats jumpin' like the speaker club (woah)
[Chorus]
Purple got me feelin' like a riot in my veins
Sweet and loud, sugar thunder in the rain
When it hits, everything starts to bounce in place
Purple, purple
All over the place
Purple on my tongue, on my thoughts, on my skin
Every little shade say "let that trouble in"
When it pops, all the quiet runs out of space
Purple, purple
All over the place (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Eggplant jacket
Zipper half-broke
You roll your eyes, then you steal my smoke
Neon bruise on your shins from the stage
You say you like livin' close to the edge
We don't talk right
We just lean close
Trade dumb jokes, cherry-cola and ghosts
Smell of ozone, candy, sweat
Best bad choice that I ever met (uh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You spin like a record in a thrift store crate
Laugh off the future, show up late
You say, "Name a color that can taste like this"
I say, "Purple"
Then we kiss (hey!)
[Chorus]
Purple got me feelin' like a riot in my veins
Sweet and loud, sugar thunder in the rain
When it hits, everything starts to bounce in place
Purple, purple
All over the place
Purple in your hair, in your laugh, in your stare
Every little smudge say "we don't play fair"
When it pops, all the quiet runs out of space
Purple, purple
All over the place (all over)
[Bridge]
Talk that talk, let the static fade
Soft light hum in a world we made
Lids half-closed in a velvet blur
Every sharp edge turns to fur
Ultraviolet under my skin
Slow-motion spin, let the colors blend
You say, "Hold on, don't chase the high"
But we already painted the sky (woah, yeah)
[Verse 3]
Bad dye job on your bathroom floor
Stains on the towel, drip down the door
You wear it out like a busted crown
Royal mess on the edge of town
I show up late in a thrift-store tee
Cartoon print, hole in the sleeve
You grab my hand like a midnight dare
"Let 'em talk"
We don't care (nah)
[Chorus]
Purple got me feelin' like a riot in my veins
Sweet and loud, sugar thunder in the rain
When it hits, everything starts to bounce in place
Purple, purple
All over the place
Purple in the bruise and the glitter in your sink
In the bad tattoos and the words we think
When it pops, all the quiet runs out of space
Purple, purple
All over the place
[Outro]
One more night
Same old song
Wrong right crowd
Right wrong
Purple on your tongue
Last slow spin
When the room goes dark
We glow within (yeah)
