Red Weather

Well I woke up alone in red weather
Had I lost my way or was I closer than ever?
Desperate tears in my eyes feeding the mouth of the river
Monochromatic skies now bleeding with color
Many rivers diverged like inelegant fingers
Or the veins of a leaf that had long-since withered
Compelled by one thought
It was now or never
So I pushed off from shore
And abandoned all anchors
Oh oh oh all the things I beliеved in
All the dreams toward which I was drawn
And thе language i used to reveal them now had gone
In red weather

I gave her my heart, she trapped it in amber
And so we became my most noble endeavor
I chose the safest way out
I’m hard pressed to remember
How I could forfeit my soul?
Why I would ever surrender?

Oh oh oh all the things I believed in
All the dreams toward which I was drawn
And the language i used to reveal them now had gone
And left me untethered
In red weather

I woke up alone in red weather
Was it sundown or dawn?
Was I worse off or better?
Desperate tears in my eyes feeding the mouth of the river
Monochromatic skies now bleeding with color

Oh oh oh all the things I believed in
All the dreams toward which I was drawn
And the language I used to reveal them now had gone
In red weather
