The Crimson

The Crimson - Travis Miguel of Atreyu

I feel it welling up inside

And Robert Smith lied

Boys do cry and with

Blood tears in my eyes I'm an Anne Rice novel come to life

I can't hide the monster anymore

One can only feel desolate for so long until

One starts to change into

Something the mirror doesn't recognize

Metamorphosize

The darkness has been biding its time

To claim its latest victim

Fresh meat for carnal desires

To become what I became

I viewed the sun for the last time

Will you still hold me when you see what I have done

Will you still kiss me the same

When you taste my victim's blood

So crimson and red

I feel it flowing from your lips (Crimson and red)

My heart is dead and so are you

And it pulses through

The desire to change to deconstruct

All of my

All of my past failings

But where to begin because when you live in sin

It's hard to look at saints

Without them reflecting your jet black aura back on you

And all I have is hope

My inner burn's not fading

I'll wipe the blood from my cheek and get on with my day

Will you still hold me when you see what I have done

Will you still kiss me the same

When you taste my victim's blood

So crimson and red

I feel it flowing from your lips (Crimson and red)

My heart is dead and so are you

And all I have is hope

And all I need is time

To bury in pine under six feet of time

The lies I told me about myself

Claw my way out

Pick the splinters from under my fingernails

I won't lose hope

I won't give in

Just live and breathe try not to die again

Just live and breathe try not to die again

Just live and breathe try not to die again

I try not to die again

Will you still hold me when you see what I have done

Will you still kiss me the same

When you taste my victim's blood

So crimson and red

I feel it flowing from your lips (Crimson and red)

My heart is dead and so are you

Will you still hold me when you see what I have done

Will you still kiss me the same

When you taste my victim's blood

So crimson and red

I feel it flowing from your lips.(When you taste my victim's blood)

My heart is dead and so are you
