From the recording Live It All
Red is about being so angry you literally see the color red. The absolute fury at feeling completely misunderstood by the person who is supposed to know you the best. The person who is supposed to love you unconditionally.
Red is high-energy soul-funk-rock with a throwback disco feel. Band is: Bre Gregg (vocals), Dan Gildea (guitar + backing vocals), Jeff Langston (bass) and Charlie Doggett (drums) with the enhancement of Steve Swatkins (Allen Stone, Excellent Gentleman + Steve Swatkins and the Positive Agenda) on Hammond B3.
Lyrics
Red! - Red Bird
You got me love struck I'm reelin’
you lead me on
You got me sick with the feelin’
that your love's so wrong
Can I get through to you stranger
you lit a spark
I follow you like a shadow
but you’re a question mark
And I see red!
You break my heart and you turn me out
And I see red!
You don't know what my love's about
Here comes the night and I’m locked up
In prison with thoughts of you
You make me feel numb, and I'm overcome
My ego is torn and bruised.
I must admit to you captain
That you're a wreckin' ball
I try so hard to be steel but
I'm your rag doll
And I see red!
You break my heart and you turn me out
And I see red!
You don't know what my love's about
You got me…you got me
Wrapped around your finger baby
You got me…you got me
Safe in your pocket for use
And I see red!
You break my heart and you turn me out
And I see red!
You don't know what my love's about
