Scarlet Lyrics

Scarlet is the one that I'm seeking

That eludes me and it's hard to trace

Scarlet is the heart that is bleeding

From wounds inflicted cannot be replaced

I've been trying so hard to leave here

With some dignity still in tact

But the only thing that I see here

A dark void into which I'm falling back

Four walls a ceiling and a floor

Cant contain the pain that I feel

When I'm looking inside at something

I barely recognize and it's what I fear

She held inside her hand all the power

To devour all the trust that I gave

Well in this life all they say is the jokes on me

For being real and giving everything away

Well this is the end of everything

By now it's too late for me to change

When I look at the sky it's weeping

When I look to the sky it's bleeding

Scarlet like my heart is seeking

And I desperately want it all to end

Why won't these wounds just heal

It's been years but their bleeding out still

Scarlet is the one that keeps creeping

In my heart and even in my mind

Scarlet is the reason that I'm leaving

The old sentimental me far behind

Where it now resides I guess I lost myself

In the lies you graciously told

You see I'm grateful for the lies that you gave to me

But I managed to hold onto my soul

Why tell me what you value in one breath

Then the next breath contradict your thought

Is it communication that you value

Or the attention that that line of thought has brought

I don't know sometimes I wonder

If this is real or just a simulation

And will I wake up from this nightmare

With the will and a brand new motivation

Well this is the end of everything

By now it's too late for me to change

When I look at the sky it's weeping

When I look to the sky it's bleeding

Scarlet like my heart is seeking

And I desperately want it all to end

Why won't these wounds just heal

It's been years but their bleeding out still

The tears

Welling up in my eyes

Are Blood

Tinged

I know I'm being dramatic

But I'm standing

On The

Fringe

So you can take all your empty words

And save them for the next one you cross

How am I supposed to find any truth

When you left me lost

Everything around me

IS turning into shades of red

I can't recognize myself

Anymore after all that's been said

Everything that you touch

Is turning into ashes

Everything that I loved

The same fate so it clashes

And I don't wanna feel this way

But it's all that I'm left with

A heart in my hands that's bleeding

It's Scarlett it's worthless
