Via Vanity

The Riddle, The Red

Via Vanity


We stand here now
With our hands covering our mouths
And every heart beats one step closer
Til this nightmare burns in hell
Can you hear the voices now?
Can you hear the voices calling out
This fires burning the most beautiful red
I can't look away
Can't stay away
And that's what you get when
You go too close
Yeah, you always get burned

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
How twisted are the times
We've come to fucking love?
Is this what I live for
To burn in the fires of an old war?
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Save who I am
and not who I was
Ashes to ashes
no love for us
Not all that is gold glitters in the dark

We are the living dead
Save me from the lack of life I've lived
There's blood on the breeze
There's fear in our lungs
Life can not be reversed
we live for when we are cursed

Will you find me waiting in between
Sanity or looking for something?
This cuts so deep it makes me bleed
These memories counted for nothing

For crying out loud
Give me a fucking break
You selfish mother fuckers
It doesn't take much to see
that I'm in trouble
I'm not crazy
I'm not fucking crazy
Haha who am I kidding

We're all mad here
So watch your fucking mouth
We're all mad here
I'm fucking losing it
I swear I've been here before

This fires burning
The most beautiful red
Not all that is gold glitters in the dark
And that's what you get when you
Go too close
Yeah, you always get burned

We are the living dead,
save me from the lack of life I've lived.
There's blood on the breeze
There's fear in our lungs
Life can not be reversed
We live for when we are cursed

Will you find me waiting in between
Sanity or looking for something?
This cuts so deep it makes me bleed
These memories counted for nothing
These memories counted for nothing
We are the living dead
