Red
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Give me the sun, and I'll turn it to ice
Turn unto me for a penny worth in price
A kiss never lies if it's lips could stay shut
A silent society is reason enough
If it's dark, paint it red
Now come and kill it dead
This poison equals sanity
Take away sickened minds
Let it bleed, through the lights
Between valid and fantasy
Catastrophe
Impure and unclean
Pain for all honesty
Of what is humanity?
We can expose, don't cover the lens
Vile perfection, but broken at ends
If it's dark, paint it red
Now come and kill it dead
This poison equals sanity
Take away sickened minds
Let it bleed, through the lights
Between valid and fantasy
Still I take photographs of hollow radiance
Cold eyes and altered smiles
And shells of emptiness
We dull to shadows hypnotized by obvious
Please cut me inside out,
My misery shall vanish into dust, into dust, into dust, dust...
Paint it red
Kill it dead
This poison equals sanity oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh...
If it's dark paint it red
Now come and kill it dead
This poison equals sanity
If it's dark, paint it red
Now to come and kill it dead
This poison equals sanity
