Blood Is Red

Blood is red
tears are blue
broken hearted
means missing you

crimson blood
shadowed faces
telling lies
leaving no traces

pouring tears
stream down faces
a black rose
in all your vases

hidden past
secret lives
i told myself
no more lies

dark night
bright day
the truth
hidden away

glowing words
burn your skin
you begin to scream
the truth sets in

dirty little secrets
you didn't want to know
your true self
will never show

faded memories
from long ago
haunt your dreams
they wont go

too many tries
so many excuses
all your lies
make me useless

hurt children
that cry at night
only they know the truth
it'll never be alright
