Blue
I run from 2
One is red
One is blue
I run from red because it makes me feel like I'm about to break
Not knowing how much more I can take
I run from blue, Not fast enough though
There's nothing I can do
Blue resides in my head
And behind my eyes
Blue is what I truly despise
Blue so much faster than red
It feels like it owns me
Feels like my master
Red used to be around so much more
Until I couldn't take it anymore
That feeling of dread
Straight to my core
Blue is what I've ran from since I've been eight
Blue is the color I truly f***ing hate
