Dead Drop Blue

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I got your name in ink On a paper thin and blue Two doors down from silence I move before I’m through Black coffee on my sleeve And a key I never show You see me at the corner Then I’m gone before you know [Pre-Chorus] Keep it low Keep it clean Every step Between the seams I don’t ask I don’t tell I just slip Out the shell [Chorus] Dead drop blue I vanish on cue Dead drop blue You never knew Dead drop blue I came for you Dead drop blue Then I’m through [Verse 2] Your mirrors catch my face But they never hold it long One hand on the briefcase One hand on the exit song A midnight train hums once When I cross that narrow line I leave a fake confession And a matchbook mark in time [Pre-Chorus] Keep it low Keep it clean Every step Between the seams I don’t ask I don’t tell I just slip Out the shell [Chorus] Dead drop blue I vanish on cue Dead drop blue You never knew Dead drop blue I came for you Dead drop blue Then I’m through [Bridge] If you hear my code word Don’t look back Don’t stay There’s a folded note At the station in the rain If they ask who sent it Say the wind blew through Say you never saw my face Say I never knew you [Chorus] Dead drop blue I vanish on cue Dead drop blue You never knew Dead drop blue I came for you Dead drop blue Then I’m through
