Color Of My Blade [Live]
Color Of My Blade [Demo]
Lyrics:

The color of my blade is red, yeah Remember what you said, yeah "Perfection is killing the freak, yeah Even as we speak, yeah" Don't you intend to explore How it was decided that their side started the war But the silence will rise to a shout then Yeah, the one that you worried about and You told us we'd see it through But the practical joker police came To knock down doors and to leave blame I remember what you told them "The color of my blade is gold" and They didn't come back anymore Because you decided to lay it out on the floor And your shimmering stuntmen would leave you Because they no longer would believe you It's useless/pointless to put/talk it through Don't you come back anymore
