Navy Blue
Charlotte Lawrence Lyrics

Conversations in the silence
Even though we're together, we're not really talking much, which is leading to this feeling of tension and unease

Words are violent
When we do talk, it often feels like we're attacking each other, rather than having a productive conversation

And the feeling's dying slow
Whatever we had between us is fading away, but it's happening slowly, so it's hard to pinpoint exactly when or how

We don't even try to hide it
Our issues are pretty obvious, but we're not actively working to fix them or address them

It's like we like it
For some reason, we seem to be content to stay in this state of tension rather than making any effort to improve our relationship

I guess the pain is comfortable
Perhaps we're both so used to the way things are that even though it's painful, it's still preferable to change or uncertainty.

We got delusions of a grand oblivion
We're holding onto unrealistic ideas of a perfect relationship that don't actually exist

We're only happy when we're higher than the sun
We're trying to escape our problems by turning to destructive behaviors or substances, rather than dealing with them head-on

Don't say the words we know are true
Even though we both know there are things we need to talk about, we're avoiding them because the truth might be too painful to confront

Just one more lie, it's not much to lose
We keep telling ourselves that it's okay to keep hiding the truth from each other, but we're really just making things worse

Pretend that I'm not wrong for you
We're both aware that we might not be right for each other, but we're clinging to a hope that it will somehow work out

Just one more night in navy blue, blue, blue
We keep hoping that things will change, but we're really just stuck in this cycle of pain and confusion

I see your face in my reflection, craving attention
Even when we're alone, we're both still thinking about each other and how much we need validation from the other person to feel good about ourselves

Is it me or my ego?
We're questioning whether we really care about the other person, or if we're just selfishly seeking attention and validation for ourselves

You don't want to ask the question, keep me guessing
We're both avoiding having a real conversation about our feelings because we're afraid of what the other person might say

Think we both can't be alone
Though we might not be right for each other, we're both afraid of being truly alone and are clinging to each other as a way to avoid confronting this fear.

And the call is dying slow
Our communication is getting worse and worse, even though we both know things aren't working between us

One more night in navy blue
We're still trying to hold onto hope that things might improve between us, even though it's becoming increasingly clear that they won't.
