It is the warmth I once felt
Back when you meant, 'I love you'
Red is the color you wore
When my eyes first saw you
Before you taught me what heartache is for
Red is the blood that now falls
You look helpless and I'm out of control
Insane by your never-ending lying tales
Red is the carpet you lay lifeless on
The knife is next to your body
Stating what has clearly gone wrong
Red are my smooth cheeks
Full of glee and the thrill
I fear it will remain for weeks
Red is my heart once again
Redemption is rightfully mine
And I'd gladly do it again.
