Purple from Fondest Memories by CROW

Rich violet
It’s her favorite color
So violent
I’m supposed to like it

Royal hue
She’s the evil leader
Soft disputes
I’m her blood red pursuit

Under her reign I can’t
Rest, I can’t have feelings
I’m her quiet servant
I must not show weakness

I must hide my revolt
She won’t let me heal
She won’t see it’s her fault
My battles aren't real

--

Golden glow
She says they're delusions
I don't know
Just how to be human

off-white cure
fix me so she won’t say
i’m unpure
there’s no hope without it

I must protect my land
She wants to take my throne
She offers me her hand
She says she's my home

I don’t want to be her
I’m her broken mirror
She turned out just perfect
I’m the stupid reject

--

Wretched purple,
Regal, hurtful
My head’s spinning
My mind won’t think
Is this normal?
I see purple
Such a sickly color,
Ain’t it

---

we are two of a kind
i ended her bloodline
won’t repeat this pattern
respect i have not earned

i’m not what she wanted
what if i could change that
take my mind and taint it
so she wouldn’t hate me

make it fix me

Take this purple
Run in circles
My head’s spinning
My mind won’t think
Is this normal?
I see purple
Such a hateful
Color, ain’t it
