Red

If I met you half way tonight we're still half way to hard place
So I'll remain on picket lines, I stand with liberty
You petition me with ethnic cleansing free Mondays
I refuse to swallow hope and succumb quietly
I know the whole truth, I'll find it and tell you
If I should die tonight well so be it, so be it
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead

Stood in a line looking, paternalist cookie cutter makes our edges all the same
Stood in a rut rutting, capitalist cookie cutter makes some edges raise their game

If I must torch my house tonight to prove I am devoted
I'd think about it long and hard, hid from view I stew
Terrorist or freedom fighter, both could be my headline
I refuse to swallow hope and succumb quietly
I know the whole truth, I'll find it and tell you
If I should die tonight well so be it, well so be it
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead

Stood in a line looking, paternalist cookie cutter makes our edges all the same
Stood in a rut rutting, capitalist cookie cutter makes some edges raise their game

If I met you half way tonight we're still half way to hard place
So I'll remain on picket lines, I stand with liberty
You petition me with ethnic cleansing free Mondays
I refuse to swallow hope and succumb quietly
I know the whole truth, I'll find it and tell you
If I should die tonight well so be it, so be it
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead
I'm red, I'm red, I'm red 'til the day I'm dead
