Painted Me Red

The world is
A canvas of white

No shades of grey
No color in sight

In this space
Of hollowing words

Of meaningless sand
And minor chords

You begin
As you meditate

To find yourself
To invigorate

And then I
Begin to form

Your inner thoughts
Stray from the norm

And then you begin

To work your strokes

Coloring with

All of your hopes

I come to life

From creative sin

A color chosen

That burns within

You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!

Harvested
A passionate fruit

Give me a hat
And give me a suit

Lose an eye
Holding a cane

I promise you
I'm completely sane

Be consumed
By my vanity

Follow my voice
In this fantasy

In this song
I hold the fire

In this melody
I am desire

You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!

You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!
You painted me red!
