Beautiful Red

Astrid Van Der Veen

beautiful red blood is leaving my veins

running out of my hands

dripping on the floor

I'm bleeding and it feels good

like my release finally arrived

beautiful red is surrounding me

no threats, no fears, just free at last



beautiful red blood is fading to black

no I cannot see, I'm losing my life

beautiful red is all I can see

suffocating, I cannot breath

falling, I cannot stand

no regrets, facing my death



beautiful red

dripping down



drip drip, losing my beautiful red

just a body dripping to death, just a soul, finding it's way

no regrets, I'll see my friends again



beautiful red blood is what I've seen

pain in my life is what I've felt

hate for stupid is what I've shown

I lived my life and now I'm gone



beautiful red

dripping down
