Red Lyrics

I am red like a book on anger

I am red like a book on love

I am red like a sunburned traveler

I'm an angry sunburned traveler who's in love

The more I read the less I hate you

The more I read the more I know

The less I read the more I'm searching

The lesson learned is that I hate to see you go

I had a friend who's always searching

I had a friend who did not know

How to read the book on anger

So he burnt the book on love

I am red like a book on fire

I am red because I did not know

That my friend was always hurting

And so I wrote this book on love

I write the page with reddish ink

I get the ink all on my hands

I wash my hands out in the sink

The sink is full of soap and blood

When I finally clean the kitchen

I sold the love book to the store

I dedicate the first few pages

To the friend I wrote it for
