"Red" lyrics

"Red"

Take me
Take me as I am, please
I made this so easy
I come in peace, baby
I know preachin' something real
When action's half sincere
I swear that I've changed

It's funny when I'm blue
I don't think about the rules
I get crazy with the moon rising
Pain comes out to play frightening
Drugs, sex, and hate hiding deep inside my brain
Fighting demons for my sanity
You think it's funny that I switched up
'Cause I was screaming, "Fuck Love", but
Really that was my way of tryna take the high way, but
I don't mind saying I was wrong

'Cause now I'm red
And honestly, I choose you over my blue
So I popped red
'Cause I always knew
Knew to choose you over my blue

Don't take me for playing cards, baby
Please, don't think I'm being smart
Twenty-one years passed, I'm a jack
Lookin' for the queen of hearts
You are a diamond in the rough, yeah
Not in the club looking for a fresh start
We were dealt bad hands last time
That's why we're gonna work a charm
Like magic, we're tragically romantic
I can make your body flip, stretch, gymnastics, no practice
Nostalgia, ultra
The beam choon or the vaulter
I can see and now I bless it
Red pills like heaven, no

It's funny when I'm blue
I don't think about the rules
I get crazy with the moon rising
Pain comes out to play
Frightening drugs, sex, and hate hiding deep inside my brain
Fighting demons for my sanity
You think it's funny that I switched up
'Cause I was screaming, "Fuck Love", but
Really that was my way of tryna take the high way, but
I don't mind saying I was wrong

'Cause now I'm red
And honestly, I choose you over my blue
So I popped red
'Cause I always knew
Knew to choose you over my blue
