Dressed in Red

I'm dressed in red tonight 'cause
I don't feel so right
Clinging to the hope that
Being red tonight
Will make me feel right
Did I get it right?

See my watercolor clothes
Sprayed on my body
Becoming the canvas
Of my fantasy
Paint me from inside
Take off all my pride

And since I don't know the words
For what's in my head
Please open up your eyes
I'll show you instead
And I will lay bare
Right under your stare

Do not let them see me
Because I am ashamed
Of what I am
When I'm caught in the flames

Do not let them see me
It's my dreadful secret
What I'm doin'
When I am dressed in red

Fire is burning in me
I don't know what to do
Show me how they do it
Should I dress in red too?
Fire is burning in me
I don't know what to do
Is that how they do it?
Do they dress in red too?

I'm dressed in red tonight to
Wash away the blue
Been feeling sad it's true
My eyes are red too
But that's too much to
Share with all of you

Am I looking good tonight
'Cause I cannot see
Howling with all my might
My head's too busy
Put your claws in me
Set my body free

Please make me forget it
Get under my skin
Learn to love and hate it
Feel me from within
The marks of your bite
Are my dress tonight

Do not let them see me
Because I am ashamed
Of what I am
When I'm caught in the flames

Do not let them see me
It's my dreadful secret
What I'm doin'
When I am dressed in red

Fire is burning in me
I don't know what to do
Show me how they do it
Should I dress in red too?
Fire is burning in me
I don't know what to do
Is that how they do it?
Do they dress in red too?

I want to feel how they feel
When they dress in red
Feel how the world has told them
How to hate themselves

But I must have been cut from
Another kind of cloth

Don't tell mom, don't tell dad
The last thing I want
Is to make them sad

Do not let them see me
Because I am ashamed
Of what I am
When I'm caught in the flames

Do not let them see me
It's my dreadful secret
What I'm doin'
When I am dressed in red

Tonight I'm dressed in red
Tonight I'm dressed in red

I'm dressed in red tonight
... Did I do it right?
