Red
Red
It's the color of the apple in my eye
The one you caused to materialize
Its the color of a rose, just beginning to bloom
So beautiful and glorious, but gone so soon
Red
It's the color of the ruby that sits on my chest
As I sit, as I walk, as I wake, as I rest
It's the color of the setting sun on a summer's night
So radiant and bold, until it's out of sight
Red
It's the color of the wall that you pushed me into
Where the ruby was left after I threw it at you
It's the color of my blood as it pours from my veins
Like a dark rainfall that never goes away
Red
It's the color of your eyes after you've had another drink
It's the color of the liquid gushing from my face to the sink
The life inside of me that was once prosperous and in full thrive
Now drains from my body and I am no loner alive
Black
It's the color if the casket in which I lay
The color of the sky on this bleak and sullen day
The color of my eye when you hit me for the last time
The color of your soul, and now the color of mine
