The Taste of Red

Butch Walker

3

Well I tripped and I fell

into a hole I know so well

and I don' tthink i'll be

leaving for awhile

and this lump beneath my skin

is the home I let you in

all it took was just your

red lipped biting smile

and damn damn damn I love you

like the stars that shine above you

light the ground that your laying on

while looking up at me

and oh good god I need this

just a chance to see your weakness

so I can come inside of your kiss

and leave you on your knees

slurring thoughts til they bled

cuz I love the taste of red

and you're stuck inside me

like a splinter does

drawing words on your back

spelling you're my heart attack

cuz your naked body glistens like the sun

and damn damn damn I love you

like the stars that shine above you

light the ground that your laying on

while looking up at me

and oh good god I need this

just a chance to show your weakness

so I can come inside of your kiss and just

leave you on your knees
