lyrics

Cherries
Strawberries
Wine
A vine...
of a poisonous kind
Candy-canes
Candied veins
Volcanic lanes... ablaze
The tip of a cigarette
A touch you won't soon forget
She bit you,
& the blood runs red.

"Yea, all those guys started up there..." -cabbie
"Just on the street?" -cyote
"Yea.. in those bars you know, wherever they could..." -cabbie
"Yea.."-cyote
"You can be great or you can just you know flop.. like a lot of guys have. You know.. I'm telling you it's a sign!
But you're here for a reason.." -cabbie

The roots beneath the tunnel feeds the baskets weave
The city streets: a gritty heat, a desperate need
A lurking thief..
but from what I see, from what I believe..
It all still bleeds Red

She bit you // Red // But you're here for a reason
