it smells like rain outside but you smell like so much more than rain you smell like crimson
and in the blackest night I turned to you for light but all I saw was crimson
chorus: Your sentiment will crush my soul and your empathy will break my bones tonight let’s not talk about that other man that you won’t leave, oh I can’t win oh I can’t win oh I can’t win
and I know I’m only second choice but I will stay even though I know I’m not the one you wanted in the first place You’re an avalanche of strength and I’m a fallen king now don’t make promises in the dark they don’t mean a thing
and what if you break my heart and what if you let me bleed try and choke on your crimson.
This isn’t something I planned and I should get out as long as I can but I’m drowning in your crimson
chorus
I met you once and I was told that you’ve got a heart of gold but we both know it’s crimson
you’re not a better man than me Johnny boy, I have seen how you tried to paint me crimson
