I've never seen lavender blooms that purple, maybe it's purple sage.

I think it might be a dwarf butterfly bush. I have one and it looks like this.

@MrsCat21

It's definitely in the mint family since it has the typical square stems.

I can't see the flowers clearly but it's not lavender. 

Are you in the southern US?

 

Are they sort of curved like this?

Or more straight like this:

Salvia (may be another kind of salvia)

It looks like a sage & not a lavender.
