Lyrics:

Your little brother never tells you but he loves you so
You said your mother only smiled on her TV show
You're only happy when your sorry head is filled with dope
I hope you make it to the day you're twenty eight years old

You're tripping like you're saturated sunlight
You're spilling like an overflowing sink
You're ripped at every edge but you're a masterpiece
And I'm tearing through the pages and the ink

Everything is blue
His pills, his hands, his jeans
And now I'm covered in the colors
Pull apart at the seams
And it’s blue
And it’s blue
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Red, red, red
Loving him was blue
And he’s blue

Touching him was like, realizing all you ever wanted 
Was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as, easy as knowin' all the words
To your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like tryin' to solve a 
Crossword and realizing there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out 
That love could be that strong 

Everything is blue
His pills, his hands, his jeans
And now I'm covered in the colors
Pull apart at the seams
And it’s blue
And it’s blue
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Red, red, red
Loving him was blue
And he’s blue

Everything is blue (red, red, red)
Everything is blue (red, red, red)
Everything is blue (red, red, red)
Everything is blue (red, red, red)

Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echos
Tell myself it's time now gotta let go 
But moving on from him is impossible 
When I still see it all in my, head 
And burning red
Burning red

Everything is blue
His pills, his hands, his jeans
And now I'm covered in the colors
Pull apart at the seams
And it’s blue
And it’s blue
Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Red, red, red
Loving him was blue
And he’s blue

His love was like driving a new Maserati
Down a dead end street

Story: 
So I watched this video called "How EVERY Chainsmokers song is written": youtube.com/watch?v=wyydWaVyJB8 . (It's really funny and true.) Naturally, I was inspired, and I wanted to see if I could write a Chainsmokers song. My friend gave me the theme: quinoa. I wrote this in 9 minutes and recorded the first draft in 3. 

It's not a perfect recording, because I think this one was my second time playing it ever? But I tried my best. Kinda bad quality.

Hope you like it!
XOXO, Therese

Lyrics:
We were sitting outside eating quinoa
And I remember how I said it was nice to meet ya
If I could do it again I would
And things right now are the way they should be

Never again you said
You were seeing in red
And if it weren't for that piece of quinoa in my hair
Maybe you would've left me right there

But we love the way this goes
Pushing faster and then pulling 
Like the tidal waves we go
Up and down and undulating
We're like water in the pot
Stirring faster and then boiling
Till we get just what we want
Eating quinoa while we're sitting

We were running to my favorite place
We were hanging out and loving all day 
We ordered quinoa one more time
Having the time of our lives 

Maybe again I said
I was seeing everything in red
If it weren't for that piece of quinoa in your hair
Maybe I would've left you right there

But we love the way this goes
Pushing faster and then pulling 
Like the tidal waves we go
Up and down and undulating
We're like water in the pot
Stirring faster and then boiling
Till we get just what we want
Eating quinoa while we're sitting

Let's do this again we said
We were seeing everything in red
If it weren't for that piece of quinoa in our hair
Maybe we would've left right there

But we love the way this goes
Pushing faster and then pulling 
Like the tidal waves we go
Up and down and undulating
And we're like water in the pot
Stirring faster and then boiling
Till we get just what we want
Eating quinoa while we're sitting
