Red is the color that surrounds me
I chose it because it is the true form of a sinful barrier
Illusions dance on the brow of my mind...
Voices fill my head that whisper in the night
Darkness is what hides behind the red
Shadows dance there way inside
For only seconds am I allowed to hide from the truths
But the reality of it all crashes down upon me crushing my spirits
I don't want to be your spectacle
I just wish for some piece of mind
My soul lingers like a ghost in search of rest
My time draws on the walls of existance
I watch the corresponding lines...taking actual shape
It is like an open book of my life that I read
They are in the open like my life
When will I bury these transgressions for good?
When will the final day come...
Does it even exist?
I go into the night now bearing the cold truth
If you wish to know how I am
Close your eyes and swim in the red
I will be hiding in the shadows
I chose it because it is the true form of a sinful barrier
Illusions dance on the brow of my mind...
Voices fill my head that whisper in the night
Darkness is what hides behind the red
Shadows dance there way inside
For only seconds am I allowed to hide from the truths
But the reality of it all crashes down upon me crushing my spirits
I don't want to be your spectacle
I just wish for some piece of mind
My soul lingers like a ghost in search of rest
My time draws on the walls of existance
I watch the corresponding lines...taking actual shape
It is like an open book of my life that I read
They are in the open like my life
When will I bury these transgressions for good?
When will the final day come...
Does it even exist?
I go into the night now bearing the cold truth
If you wish to know how I am
Close your eyes and swim in the red
I will be hiding in the shadows
