The Color of Red

The fire in my eye the knife
between my fingers the red
upon my lips shows the evil
within my fears to show
the love I feel for you

For the fire in my eyes
is for the love I have seen
walk away and fall apart
a million times

For the knife is for the
person who keeps ripping
my heart out no matter
what I choose to do for
them the blood dripping
from the knife is the tears
just falling all over again

For the red on my lips is
how many times I have
kissed someone and they told me
they loved me even after they turned
around and slept with the girl
next door

For all of this I wipe all the red
off my face and once again
I try to love once again
