Red

I can't get her out of my head.

I can't fall asleep.

I need to see red.

 

Every day, every night.

Something I can't fight

I need to see red.

 

When life is just too much

and I need release.

I go see red.

 

When I can't leave my bed

only one thing motivates me.

My need to see red.

 

My friends are worried,

my family is unaware.

Of my need for red.

 

I've started wearing long sleeves.

It's cold down there

But I have to go see red.

 

This morning was extra hard.

But one thing drove me.

I have to see red.

 

I'm walking to class as we speak

I completely missed what the teacher said

I was busy in the back, talking to red.
