Scarlet & Gold

Back to when I was 15
I fantasized that I'd meet
Someone to see through my iris
Sheets prooved it wasn't so likely

Red lipstick, sharp-witted, dirty talk
Straight out of a Fitzgerald novel
I couldn't stop my eyes blinking photos
I gotta tell that you, man
All is not lost

I wouldn't mind
If burned me slow
'Til I'm gone
'Til I turn
Into bones

I didn't lie
When I called you gold
'Cause you're art
And I'd love to solve you

At this torrential crossroad
You're a yellow light I'll reach for

I wouldn't mind
If burned me slow
'Til I'm gone
'Til I turn
Into bones

I didn't lie
When I called you gold
'Cause you're art
And I'd love to solve you
