Scarlet Lyrics
Dress me in scarletRibbons and bows so everyone knowsI'm hiding a faceThat hasn't the grace to go free.Dress me in shadowsSad April skies have opened my eyesTo the lie that I liveAnd given the river awayI'll change these clothes if I want to, and I doI think that I've found outWhat no-one's about to tell meI think that I've found outI don't wear scarlet well.Waiting before mePoets and painters may say;"When will you stumble our wayKick off your red shoes and fly now"I'll die for their words if I want to, and I do.Always before mePoets and sages may say;"We've been lamenting your fallAnd carving it all into stone hereAnd skimming them into the river, just for you..."I think that I've found outWhat no-one's about to tell meI think that I've found outThe place where angels fell from...I think that I've found outI don't wear scarlet well.
