Code Red
Woke up at six To find a moonlit sky It was still dark out there The silences still hung bare And the roads led nowhere Switched on the phone A message beeped out loud It was you, again You tried to call, signal failed I felt real depressed I know where you were So don't try pretend otherwise "It's not what you think," you said But the lies, they dropped dead Like them birds in the sky O I've been tryin' to recover From your toxic love, and failed The venom is potent, they said But the tears, they otherwise said Betrayal by that special, code red They played Baez on the radio But I wanted Chaan instead To hear sorry, that ne'er was there The guitar kept getting picked instead And the mood lasted long And I lay there, cryin' my heart away We'll never talk again, I said Deleted all messages that were there Wiped my face dry and said "It's a new day" The sun was out, it had an orange glow that time,
