All Too Well definitely slays everything else on Red lyrically for me. But the album is still full of great lyrics. Treacherous has some of my favs.
And alll we are is skin and bone
Trained to get along
Forever going with the flow
But you're friction
You took the time to memorize me:
My fears, my hopes, and dreams.
I just like hangin' out with you, all the time.
All those times that you didn't leave;
It's been occurring to me I'd like to hang out with you,
for my whole life.
Two headlights shine through the sleepless nights and I will
get you, get you alone
Your name has echoed through my mind and I just
think you should, think you should know
that nothing safe is worth the drive and I will
follow you, follow you home
I'll follow you, follow home.
"In dreams I meet you in warm conversation
We both wake in lonely beds in different cities
And time is taking its sweet time erasing you
And you've got your demons, and, darling, they all look like me"
Two headlights shine through the sleepless nights and I will
get you, get you alone
Your name has echoed through my mind and I just
think you should, think you should know
that nothing safe is worth the drive and I will
follow you, follow you home
I'll follow you, follow home.
This is the last time you tell me I've got it wrong
This is the last time I say it's been you all along
This is the last time I let you in my door
This is the last time I won't you hurt you anymore
All Too Well definitely slays everything else on Red lyrically for me. But the album is still full of great lyrics. Treacherous has some of my favs.
And alll we are is skin and bone
Trained to get along
Forever going with the flow
But you're friction
I was reminiscing just the other day while having coffee all alone and lord it took me away
We learn to live with the pain
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it's time now, gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible
When I still see it all in my head
In burning red
On a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you.
And I wish I could run to you.
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do
We're happy free confused and lonely at the same time
The entirety of All Too Well, its a literal masterpiece
But besides that
So you were never a saint and I love your shades of wrong
We learn to live with the pain; mosaic broken hearts
But this love is raging and wild
I bet you think I either moved on or hate you, cause each tine you reach out there's no reply
And I bet, it never ever occured to you that I cant say hello to you and risk another goodbye
Distance, timing, breakdown, fighting Silence, this train runs off its tracks
Kiss me, try to fix it, could you just try to listen? Hang up, give up, for the life of us we can't get back
"In dreams I meet you in warm conversation
We both wake in lonely beds in different cities
And time is taking its sweet time erasing you
And you've got your demons, and, darling, they all look like me"
And you've got your demons, and, darling, they all look like me
