lyrics

I’m not like that any other day,
Might have said some things that wasn’t me.
Now we’re high in the afterglow
Of suicidal, selfish jokes.

Cuz you
Got a way to take that all away,
Got a smile that cracks this filthy mirror – believe it,
The road is red.

Thoughts will seep through a careful brain,
Sleeping pills and open veins.
Tie a weight around a leg,
Let it sink as we slip away.

You
Got a way to take that all away,
Got a smile that cracks this broken mirror – believe it,
The road is red.

We waited ‘til the lights went down,
The dirty floors,
The padded walls,
You coughed a key out of your throat,
Creaking bars,
We floated down through ghostly halls,
The wailing and moans of the psychos in the other wards were dying,
Just you and I,
We took off our straightjackets,
Put on normal clothes and walk out.

I’m not like that any other day,
Might have done some things wasn’t me.
I think time can make this right,
Sewing kits and rusted knives.

The road is red. (repeat till end.)
