Scarlet April

Didn't you tell me diamonds never rust?

We lit up a spark we were certain would ever last

Damn all the others, it was different

Unlike the goners, we were alive

We stormed against the lanes down the corner, but never enough

I called you home

Now, where do I head to?

It's always gonna rain, you're out to the wild

You had me here screaming by the exit signs

I'm gonna steer the wheels, never looking back

And let the pen write its own stories

It's never gonna change, you're out to the wild

Locked out, I'm dreaming about faded lines

I'm gonna steer the wheels, 'cause there's no turning back

To when you left and painted April scarlet

Trashed all the rules that you couldn't follow

You never cared for golds in the depths

I'm done casting crazy spells called hollow wishes

The lights in cities are set

And if we tried to fix the things again, we're gonna rip all that's left open

Receding to distance, I see the defenses lost

And the home

Now, where do I head to?

It's always gonna rain, you're out to the wild

You had me here screaming by the exit signs

I'm gonna steer the wheels, never looking back

And let the pen write its own stories

It's never gonna change, you're out to the wild

Locked out, I'm dreaming about faded lines

I'm gonna steer the wheels, 'cause there's no turning back

To when you left me down and out

Sending chandeliers in glitter gold down to the floor to curse me

Painting heaven shades of dusk

But baby, didn't you tell me diamons never rust?

It's always gonna rain, you're out to the wild

You had me here screaming by the exit signs

I'm gonna steer the wheels, never looking back

And let the pen write its own stories

It's never gonna change, you're out to the wild

Locked out, I'm dreaming about faded lines

I'm gonna steer the wheels, 'cause there's no turning back

To when you left and painted April scarlet
