Vermillion
Location
I'm huddled in my corner
With nothing left to show for my sins
The walls are growing colder
And I see the world through a twisted lense
I look down at my canvases
They're riddled with lines fading away
I've many disadvantages
But with my blade, I begin to paint
Red is the color of many pretty things
Ruby lips, leaves, and destiny strings
Red is the color of life's push and pull
But, today, it isn't beautiful
I'm trembling at the counter
As the sink sweeps away my cause to cry
My tongue is growing sour
And I feel I might lose all that I hide
I look up at the ceiling as it sways
My eyes swimming in an ocean of fears
As I've seen, life has many shades of grey
But the darkness lingers, here
Red is the color of many pretty things
Ruby lips, leaves, and destiny strings
Red is the color of life's push and pull
But, today, it isn't beautiful
Red is the color of many pretty things
Ruby lips, leaves, and destiny strings
Red is the color of life's push and pull
But, today, it isn't beautiful
