Crimson

[Verse 1] Red sky static over broken glass Teleported in a blink Then the world collapsed Empty streets Every window black Breathing in rust Trying not to gag Billboards dripping Faces torn Every ad screaming in a frozen storm Something moves in the corner of my sight Wet footprints shining in the crimson light [Chorus] Blood in the air I taste that iron prayer Crimson world I’m running through a nightmare Flesh on the walls They’re crawling from the floor Fractured sky above these gore-filled forms I don’t look back I just disappear Every hungry monster drawing near Blood in the air Blood in the air Crimson everywhere [Verse 2] Street sign bent like a broken limb Sirens long dead But the echoes cling Shadows twitch on the pharmacy door Something chewing through the tiles Begging for more Jawless grin in a butchered mask Stitches split as it starts to laugh Teeth where the stomach should be Slick and sharp It sniffs my fear like a work of art [Chorus] Blood in the air I taste that iron prayer Crimson world Breathing on my neck Fractured streets Dripping from the wreck I keep running as the hunger comes Blood in the air It burns my lungs Every hungry monster drawing near Blood in the air Blood in the air Crimson everywhere [Verse 3] Empty towers Windows watching Streets like veins Pulsing Rotting Flesh-things dragging rusted chains Eyes along the dripping walls Their laughter crawling through my brain Like swarms that never fall Footsteps echo in the dark Mine… and something else behind If I slow down for a breath They’ll peel me from my mind [Chorus] Blood in the air I taste that iron prayer Crimson world Breathing on my neck Fractured streets Dripping from the wreck I keep running as the hunger comes Blood in the air It burns my lungs Every hungry monster drawing near Blood in the air Blood in the air Crimson everywhere [Verse 4] Neon flickers through a butchered rain Every drop tastes sharp like pain Heartbeat pounding in my ears But the rhythm almost sounds like theirs Hands are shaking, veins burn cold Something in me’s getting bold Hear them whisper through the red-lit street “Stop your running… join the feast.” [Bridge] Is this hell Or a lab gone wrong? City of meat where the lost belong I bite my tongue till the salt cuts through Just to know that I’m still true If I stop now I become their feast Pray I wake up… Or become the beast [Final Chorus] Blood in the air I taste that iron prayer Crimson world It’s breathing down my neck Flesh on the walls They’re tearing through the floor Fractured sky above this endless gore I don’t look back I just disappear Every hungry monster drawing near Blood in the air Blood in the air Crimson everywhere Crimson world Crimson world And it wants me but something green Have found me I will survive This crimson world
