Scarlet tears
Wet cheeks
From the rain
Of an inside storm
Raging in my head all day long
Turquoise tears
Caribbean blue
Contrast to scarlet eyes
And vermillion hands
Lose the game
Lose the war
Lack of army
Trouble in paradise
Scarlet eyes, scarlet tears
Open wounds, golden sun
Closed heart, silver moon
Lots of promises, lesser trust
Lies like music in my ears
Singing the same words
Over and over again
Over and over again
Truths like acid on my tongue
Repeating the same mistakes
To leave all the same
To stay forever changed
Scarlet tears down the pretty face
Of the truth never told
And the lies whispered
In the darkness of a broken mind
