Red

She drowns in the crimson glow that pierces her eyes
He clutches her beating heart and watches her cry
Her foreboding swallows her every night
He can't help but think he leaves her unsatisfied

His shirt smells like cigarettes, his jeans marked with ash
She's working her hardest but still is strapped for cash
His blood quietly boils behind his panache
She refuses to sleep 'cause she's afraid he won't come back

What do you fear, my love?
What are you so afraid of?
Red, the color of your lips
They falter, they waver
Red, the color of your fear
Your panicked behavior

Insomnia creeping up under her skin
His eyelids are heavy as fatigue sets in
Anxiety weighs down and has her chest pinned
He can't stay awake, she feels so abandoned

What do you fear, my love?
What are you so afraid of?
Red, the color of your lips
They falter, they waver
Red, the color of your fear
Your panicked behavior

What do you fear, my love?
What are you so afraid of?
Red, the color of your lips
They falter, they waver
Red, the color of your fear
Your violent behavior
