Red And Purple - The Dodos

There’s nobody here

To tell us a joke

We tear off our ears

The fire that we stoke

You wrote me a note

The pages were blank

And I, I should have known

Invisible ink

I know that I am yours and you will be mine

Come and join us in the trenches

Red and purple by our side

Say you’ll never leave us In this company of mine

You carry this dirt

We stole from the source

Its tongue will be hurt

Attack from the north

The color was red

The number was six

Now you’re in my head

No more to convince

I know that I am yours and you will be mine

Come and join us in the trenches

Red and purple by our side

Say you’ll never leave us In this company of mine

I bring this back home

Just hoping I’ve changed

So that you will know

Just how I’m deranged

But you’re off on your search

You’re crying, then went to church

You’re safe, or at least I heard

Until to me you return

I know that I am yours and you will be mine

Come and join us in the trenches

Red and purple by our side

Say you’ll never leave us In this company of mine
