Lyrics

This brief encounter / fleeting yet infinite

Outstreched arms / ever so close

Just out of harms reach / fingertips they beckon

I won't be a part of this tragedy

[chorus]

Again and yet again it's the colour red

From what I've seen I'll take my chances alone

Run while you still can / it's safer this way

From what I've seen I'll take my chances alone

I must redefine / reinvent myself

no re-enactment of the same mistakes made

trying to seperate my fears from my memories

but they're the same / limits and lines are all that remain

I'm not addicted to this drama

I guess I'm just as scared as you are

[chorus]

Red / the colour red
