Lyrics

[Intro] If you have the thought, "Are these guys having fun?" Yes, we are having so much fun Uh, we've been so fortunate to be able to do this, it's a weird time in the world Our bus broke down, our backup bus broke down We've done the whole tour in a Sprinter van and an airplane, so We're very tired, we're very happy This song, it's called "Good in Red" Well, this song happens to be about trauma This might not be your song, but if this is your song You can sing it as loud as you want, okay? [Verse 1] Called a curse in the cradle Loving mother, unstable Daddy gone, under the table But you found a song in your heart And you learn how to fight How to starve, how to survive When the others blocked your light You learned to see beyond the stars [Pre-Chorus] And this curse of small desires Too easily acquired Now it's time to set your gasoline heart on fire [Chorus] Kill your demons, kill 'em dead In your mirror, in your bed In your heart, in your head Don't you look good in red Slay your devils, kill 'em all Take your throne, paint the walls And if you make it out alive Hold that bloody head up high [Post-Chorus] Don't you look good in red Don't you look good in red [Verse 2] Is there more beyond those plains? You cut your hair and you changed your name Left a note as you escaped To thine own self be true But there was no gold in those hills No platinum in those pretty pills Just werewolves tossin' dollar bills And the wine-dark sea of Malibu [Pre-Chorus] And this curse of small desires Too easily acquired Now it's time to set your gasoline heart on fire [Chorus] Kill your demons, kill 'em dead In your mirror, in your bed In your heart, in your head Don't you look good in red? Slay your devils, kill 'em all Take your throne, paint the walls And if you make it out alive Hold that bloody head up high [Post-Chorus] Don't you look good in red Don't you look good in red [Bridge] 'Cause no one's comin' to save you No one's comin' to save you You swing that sword that you made With the pain that they gave you Like the pain is gonna save you Like the pain is gonna save you The pain is gonna save you [Chorus] Kill your demons, kill 'em dead In your mirror, in your bed In your heart, in your head Don't you look good in red? Slay your devils, kill 'em all Take your throne, paint the walls And if you make it out alive You hold that bloody head up high [Outro] Don't you look good in red Don't you look good in red Don't you look good in red Don't you look good in red
