Don't bite your tongue
There's already blood speckled on the rug
And the rain has come to drown
A minor accident, the bull in Chinatown
Well, hey
Just set it off
Gather your armaments
And head for the parkin' lot
All eyes now are flyin' free
Free from elegance and eternity
You know I love you bad
But bad's been good to me
Bleed out with the color of red
And fade it away
Well, they got the blues, darlin', but
We got the greys, yeah, I said
Bleed out with the color of red
And fade it away
Well, they got the blues, momma, but
We got the greys, yeah
Oh God, get those stars out of her eyes
What if you go blind and have to drive me home?
Well, all you're gonna see is nothing more
Than a shadow cast through an open door
Oh, and if you leave, will you leave with me?
Or will I get trapped out in the patterns,
Will I get swallowed by the weeds?
Oh, don't let me do myself like that
All those petty [?] of ecstasy
You know I love you bad
But bad has been good to me
Bleed out with the color of red
And fade it away
Well, they got the blues, darlin', but
Oh, we got the greys, yeah, I said
Bleed out with the color of red
And fade it away
Well, they got the blues, momma, but
Yeah, we got the greys, yeah
They got the blues
And we got the greys
