Scarlet red is all that's left of us
A room where no honesty remains
Still farther fetched is our return to grace
Though I'd give anything
To turn back these idle hands of shame
So let the rain come down
Let the lightning fly
Rest assured
Your stars won't have the answers
Erosion therapy
All that's left of you and me
Falling down and hiding
All the ways that we've gone wrong
Let's watch the people point
And stare at us today
You know we've brought this on ourselves
They'll see us crumble
As we count the many ways
You left us spineless and scarlet red
Scarlet red!
Both found complicit in this mess we've made
Intruders lay with us in bed
Rabid yet penitent we hide in shame
And these spurious adulterations
Our vile form of treason
So let the rain come down
Let the lightning fly
Rest assured
We'll never have the answers
Erosion therapy
All that's left of you and me
Falling down and hiding
All the ways that we've gone wrong
Let's watch the people point
And stare at us each day
You know we've brought this on ourselves
They'll see us crumble
As we count the many ways
I left us spineless and scarlet red
Scarlet red!
Dishonor and disgrace
Shining bright for all to see
Betrayal in our faces
And every stop sign in between
