I see red, your heart is deep
It's filling in with everything that I packed, you folded 'em neatly, put 'em in a stack
You take it all, what I push
I just don't know how you deal
When I see red, oh I see red, my heart pumps lead, it's icy red
You're on the path, you're on the path
And I am the obstacle lying in wait
You're on the path, you're on the path
And I am the obstacle, trying far too late
Together we'll slink on, striking familiar chords
Let's slam into reverse, evade the challenge words
We made our bed, one side is cold
The roof's blown off, won't you be gone
When I wake, and I see red, deserved you said, it's icy red
You're on the path, you're on the path
And I am the obstacle still lying in wait
We could've played on, striking familiar chords
Slamming into reverse, evade the challenge words
