Red


My hand runs through your hair
My blood runs through your veins
Leaves move from windy air
And falls when the sky rains
So let the rain pour down
And just cut me some slack
Save me before I drown
Instead of fighting back

Allow my red to flow
You’re causing it slow
Making me trapped below

Chorus:
Red is the color of blood
Red is the color of love
My heart feels like it’s bleeding
But my heart is just beating
To your heart, to your heart
My heart is just beating…for you

Don’t take love for granted
It makes your blood run cold
Love can be enchanted
When the truth’s not controlled
Our love is raining blood
Causing me worlds of pain
We’re caught in a flash flood
And now our worlds are stained

Give my red time to heal
There’s nothing I can feel
It’s time to strike a deal

CHORUS

Please leave my red alone
Bad blood is all I’ve known
My love is on its own

You are a fantasy
You’re imaginary
Feels like eternity
Since I’ve seen you

CHORUS


These are some more obscure lyrics that I have written. They also seem to go deeper than other stuff I have written. If you read closely, there are several repeated themes: love, blood, and water. The color red is used to symbolize two different ideas in the words.
