Lyrics My Own Private Alaska

My Own Private Alaska

Red

Blue

The color was for you

Despite none of your eyes being blue

Just like the ocean

When it’s green

Full of gasoline

I saw you grin at me

Your smiles I can’t believe in

Understand

The dress was white

It needed to be white

And I hope you understand why

I needed sex and alcohol

Cause when I fell, I fell in

Black. A big black inner hole

I didn’t even see the sides

The light in the end was so far

And it was

Red

All is red now

The sky is red, the water is red,

All is red now

The grass is red, the stone is red, the sand is red,

All is red now

My hands are red, my feet are red, my hair is red, my eyes are red,

All is red now

Yellow

Sweet and dangerous yellow

Did I wear the color of shame ?

Could I just swallow all this rain ?

Purple was the rain.

And what’s the purpose of this lane ?

Will I be insane again ?

And find our home empy ?

Empty like my brain.

Empty cause I’m the idiot of this train

Idiocy is my pride, cause I forgive

I forgive the unforgiven

I give more than I get

And with a single black pen, I paint in color

I paint in red

Red

All is red now

The sky is red, the water is red,

All is red now

The grass is red, the stone is red, the sand is red,

All is red now

My hands are red, my feet are red, my hair is red, my eyes are red,

All is red now

Now

We are travelling

Inside

Out of our minds

Now

We are travelling

So far

Away from home

The dress was white.

It needed to be white
