lyrics

A:

And in the crimson night
It fell into my sight
Lifted the veil made the land show it’s true lights

I never knew what lied
In scattered streaks in skies
A beauty manufactured
To hide from common eyes

And it’s alright now
Alright now

If rotten fingers try to pull me back
I’m magnetized to making my new map
A hundred new directions enter sight
My red existence taps into new life

I thought that I was helpless
I thought I’d never raise my chin out of the muck
But now the earth is all for me to use

And in the infant day
I shook the dust away
The right instructions are finally on display

To set the sky alight
To gain some peace of mind
My cowardice will not remain
I’ll reinvent this life

I bet you thought I hit the road
I’ve only rediscovered home
Lying in the grass
With the world as my throne
So take the time to

Reassess the
Reassess what these two arms can move
Reassess the
Reassess what fuels idealistic obsession

Right above you
Right behind you
Blossoming perfection
As long as you can hold your grip

Come and take a ride
Across the sky
And see what changed
Behind my guise

And its all I want
All I own

If rotten fingers try to pull me back
I’m magnetized to making my new map
My shade consumes the barriers of light
Endless possibility tonight

But if you walk away then you’re a fool
You’ll never parallel this much control
A conqueror is floating by your side
My red existence was always my birthrate

I thought that I was worthless
A brand new life of value fills these shoes
I won’t come down till I have nothing left to lose
