letters in red Lyrics

I Spit in My Own Face

The reflection is a disgrace

Baptized myself in hate

I'd change but it's too late

Lost my cool & control

A broken mirror & soul

Hanging on by a thread

As my hand slowly turns red

Then I see something I don't want but I need

That I never opened or took the time to read

Pull myself together from the anger & rage

And Read this poetry from the blood stained page

But these letters in red

Bring me back from the dead

A voice enters my ear

Whispering words I hold dear

Lay your ego & pride

I'm here right by your side

Any tears that are shed

Are caught by these letters in red

Unclench both of my fists

And then I check on my wrists

For any scars on me

Where yours used to be

I know you aren't here but you are with me

Why did I choose to leave when I needed you desperately

Then I see something I don't want but I need

That I never opened or took the time to read

Pull myself together from the anger & rage

And Read this poetry from the blood stained page

But these letters in red

Bring me back from the dead

A voice enters my ear

Whispering words I hold dear

Lay your ego & pride

I'm here right by your side

Any tears that are shed

Are caught by these letters in red

Take my hand and don't ever let go

Even when I fight, even when I don't know

On the path you take me, on the narrow road

Just don't leave me behind even if I walk slow

But these letters in red

Bring me back from the dead

A voice enters my ear

Whispering words I hold dear

Lay your ego & pride

I'm here right by your side

Any tears that are shed

Are caught by these letters in red

Letters in red

This is the beginning

I stand tall with grace

The reflection in the mirror

For the first time shows a smile on my face
