Good in Red - The Midnight

Call the curse in the cradle

Lovely mother, unstable

Daddy gone, under the table

But you found the song in your heart

So you learn how to fight, how to starve, how to survive

But when the others blocked your light you learned to see beyond the stars

The curse of small desires

Easily acquired

It’s time to set your gasoline heart on fire

Kill your demons, kill em dead

In your mirror, in your bed

In your heart, in your head

Don’t you look good in red?

Slay your devils, kill em all

Take your throne, paint the walls

And if you make it out alive, hold that bloody head up high

Don’t you look good in red?

Don’t you look good in red?

There’s a movie on those planes (?)

You cut your hair, changed your name

Left a notice you escaped — to thine own self be true

If there was no gold in those hills, no platinum in those pretty pills

Just werewolves tossing dollar bills in the wide dark sea of Malibu

The curse of small desires

Easily acquired

It’s time to set your gasoline heart on fire

Kill your demons, kill em dead

In your mirror, in your bed

In your heart, in your head

Don’t you look good in red?

Slay your devils, kill em all

Take your throne, paint the walls

And if you make it out alive, hold that bloody head up high

Don’t you look good in red?

Don’t you look good in red?

No one’s coming to save you

No one’s coming to save you

Swing that sword that you made with your pain that they gave you like the pain

is gonna save you

The pain is gonna save you

Kill your demons, kill em dead

In your mirror, in your bed

In your heart, in your head

Don’t you look good in red?

Slay your devils, kill em all

Take your throne, paint the walls

And if you make it out alive, hold that bloody head up high

Don’t you look good in red?

Don’t you look good in red?
