about

This song was inspired by someone close to me who fell in love for the 2nd time with the same girl and had his heart broken again. He knew he had to let her go for good this time but a part of him would be changed forever. His story reminded me of when color dye is put in the water of carnation flowers and they drink it to stay alive, forever changing them in the process.

Vs 1:
It was late February, when she told you she was moving on
She was missing history and felt that she was living wrong

Pre-Chorus:
So you drink her in. You drink her in.
You drink her in like…

Chorus:
Carnations drink color. Like carnations drink color.

Vs 2:
Her eyes dance moonlit miles.
She pulls you in you want to cry.
You'll always remember her till your dying day.
No one's ever made you feel this way

Pre-Chorus:
So you drink her in. You drink her in.
You drink her in like…

Chorus:
Carnations drink color. Like carnations drink color.

Instrumental

Interlude:
(You drink her) like water (like water)
You drink her (You drink her) like water (like wahahahah) ooooh
(You drink her) like water (like water) you need her
(You drink her) like water (like wahahahah) ooooh

Bridge:
Now you know what it is
This hell & happiness
Wrapped in a moment like this
That will stay with you forever... like...

Chorus:
Carnations drink color like
Carnations drink color like
Carnations drink color like
Carnations drink color
