Lyrics of ' Light Me In Red ' by Isaac Anderson

Light me in red and open my eyes
Light me in red and open my eyes
I don't wanna fall through this aching divide
So light me in red and open my eyes

Light me in red and open my eyes
Tell me the truth, are we gonna survive?
The doors have all closed on our runaway nights
And I'm starting to get what 'forgotten' is like

But I know that I'm paying a reasonable price
A solitary blip in a comfortable life
A priority seat, neither earned, nor denied
So light me in red and open my eyes

It's obvious, the universe's plans are often lost on us
We're losing faith, we're losing trust
And I could never say it enough

So light me in red, I'm ashamed of my skin
I know for a fact that I'm set up to win
My gender, my race, and my class, and my kin
My problems are nil in the grand scheme of things

Oh it's real, and it's cruel, and it's here, and it's now
I don't understand, but I understand how
You can't rewrite the rules without tearing a page
No room for indifference in this day and age

So from here on, a promise I'll keep till I die
To open my heart, and to open my mind
Step back from the edge of the aching divide
To stand by your side, to stand by your side
So light me in red and open my eyes

Light me in red and open my eyes
Light me in red and open my eyes
I don't wanna fall through this aching divide
So light me in red and open my eyes
