You showed up in your Sunday shoes
On a Tuesday night
Past curfew
Lipstick stain on a paper cup
Saying
“Tell me when you’ve had enough”
Crimson moon
Hanging over our bad ideas
You pull me closer
Say “leave it all here”
If the sky falls soon
Let it crash on our tangled truth
If I lose my way
I’ll blame this
Crimson moon
Parking lot
Humming neon sign
Your jacket draped over my tired pride
You trace plans on my open palm
Every line a little more wrong
Crimson moon
Hanging over our bad ideas
You pull me closer
Say “leave it all here”
If the sky falls soon
Let it crash on our tangled truth
If I lose my way
I’ll blame this
Crimson moon
You said
“One more night
Then we’ll be fine” (will we?)
But we keep spinning past all the warning signs
If this is reckless
Let it be bright
Let it burn red across the sky
Crimson moon
Hanging over our bad ideas
You pull me closer
Say “leave it all here”
If the sky falls soon
Let it crash on our tangled truth
If I lose my way
I’ll blame this
Crimson moon
