Red and Green

[Intro] (Barcelona? Venice? We forgot.) They saw red and green walking side by side— But no one asked which color was which. And we didn’t say. [Verse 1] The street was sunlit, the game was easy. One of us flirted. The other sealed the deal. Window reflections kept the score. We never checked who they were watching for. Matching strides. Clashing dresses. Two queens in borrowed addresses. We stole espresso. We shared a name. We knew the rules. We played the flame. [Pre-Chorus] She said, “You wear the green.” I said, “Red looks better on my sins.” We took a wrong turn into forever. No maps. Just matching grins. [Chorus] Red and green, sharp and clean— Walking like we owned the scene. One was loud, the other watched. But we both knew how to swap the plot. They looked. They stared. They never knew— There were always two. [Verse 2] A man asked for a dance by the fountain. She took the spin. I took his name. We ghosted before the check arrived, Left our shadows in the frame. A mirror in the hotel lobby cracked. She laughed. I didn’t. She wore the green. But my perfume did the sinning. [Bridge] (Spoken / echo) "Do you remember that café?" "No, but I remember the ring you stole." "That was you." "Was it?" We blurred in sun, in wine, in men. We switched so fast, we couldn’t pretend. We became pretend. [Chorus – reprise] Red and green, rules unseen— We lit the fuse behind the screen. They only saw what we allowed. But the game got loud. If you looked too close… You'd forget which one you chose. [Outro] We walked arm in arm. One heart. One war. Red and green. But never neutral.
