Saw Red

Here's to the damage, the one that makes us whole And here's to the merry ones that died and won't get old And they will say a prayer for your soul In hopes that it gets caught before you go Down, down, down, say something 'Cause when you're lost, all my love never will carry you far I will remember the last thing that you said 'Cause I saw red in the corner of your eye Where I store the piece of you in the back of my mind Now I'm in the light and you're in the flame We'll burn this ugly city and go dancing in between Bring me back The damage done, the damage leaves us tall And I will stay the hero, you can stay the villain A pale moon, a bitter pill, a bitter sip to swallow So let's make believe You'll meet your maker soon The part of me that's real is not removing you 'Cause you live in fear and you don't even notice 'Cause I saw red in the corner of your eye Where I store the piece of you in the back of my mind Now I'm in the light and you're in the flame We'll burn this ugly city and go dancing in between 'Cause I saw red in the corner of your eye Where I store the piece of you in the back of my mind Now I'm in the light, we're both in the flame And we'll burn this city and go dancing in between (And you don't even notice) (And you don't even notice) I do not know who I am, yet I desperately want self-definition I am trying to get us to abandon that terminology I'm saying something inconsistent I am who I say I am I'm not there, I do not sleep I am speaking to a microphone, broadcasting my despair, but I hear no response I'm sorry I was not here to hear your whole testimony, I'm listening now I am a visitor I am not sophisticated, but simple, concentrated I am a visitor I'm not well-trained in smile I'm a little bit afraid that it might sound noisy to you I'm not likely to be impressed by the same thing over and over again I am not sick, I don't need help I'm sorry for every time I made you cry
