Colour me

 

Color me red

for the blood

that sings in my veins

 

Scarlet for danger

for passion, for pain

Crimson in anger

that shatters and maims

Warm glowing wine

for the lust that remains

Cold dying embers

in fresh summer rains

deepen to black

of a time shadowed name

 

Long and long

I've been snared in your game

Now its over

and nothing's the same

You dealt me

a death blow again

I won't pay the price

by going insane

Though you cut me

I won't feel the pain

 

Color me red

for the blood

that sings in my veins
