Lyrics

Verse 1

I keep the shade drawn on a Tuesday

Your jacket hangs here still

Somebody asked me how I'm doing

I said I'm doing well

I was a fever you were a flood

We wrecked a whole summer

Called it love called it war

Called it anything but over

Pre-Chorus

And I don't hate you

I just can't hold the weight

Of the years we burned

Chorus

Maroon the color of us

Maroon the color of us

Everything fades to a bruise

Everything fades to a bruise

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

Post-Chorus

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh

Verse 2

You slammed the door on a Sunday

Then called me twice by ten

We were so good at breaking

And so bad at staying friends

I gave you all my softest parts

You handed me your storms

I keep a drawer of your handwriting

And a heart that still keeps warm

Pre-Chorus

And I don't blame you

I just can't hold the weight

Of the years we burned

Chorus

Maroon the color of us

Maroon the color of us

Everything fades to a bruise

Everything fades to a bruise

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

Drop

Maroon maroon

Maroon maroon

Bridge

Maybe we were younger

Maybe we were right

Maybe I still miss you

On the quiet nights

Maybe I'm the reason

Maybe you're the same

Maybe it was never

Meant to have a name

Chorus

Maroon the color of us

Maroon the color of us

Everything fades to a bruise

Everything fades to a bruise

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

I loved you loud I loved you wrong

Post-Chorus

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh
