nikki jean - red black & blue (2012 tulip st. demo) lyrics
the fine lines of your body are a party drug
casual bad habit i couldn’t break
i look at you and hear a song i used to love
wish i heard the hiss of blank tape
the scene is dead
the scene is dead
and i keep coming back to you
the dream is dead
the dream is dead
and everything is red, black, and blue
like my eyes each time we fight
the sky morning night and noon
ink on the page we tried to write
dried too soon
red, black, and blue
red, black, and blue
no white flag
just fire ice and ashes
no surrender and nothing worth fighting for
we used to go to war and then we’d pray for peace
now we’ve made our peace with war
forgive us our daily bread
and keep hope alive
the dream is dead
the dream is dead
and everything is blue, black, and red
like my eyes each time we fight
the sky morning night and noon
ink the page we tried to write
that dried too soon
red black and blue
red black and blue
tears as hard and sharp as diamonds
under this street light
they pay the toll across the river styx
into this afterlife
maybe it’s heaven
maybe heavens red, black, and blue
