Red
FOR Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Scared to live alone
Pressured into depression
From the walls inside this home
If love is negative
You've filled me almost full
Tyrannous
Smash the windows
I tried to turn away and
Always fell right back
But it gets hard to do
When you're standing on my track
I'll learn to live the way
You'd always want me to
Complain and hate
So I can grow down into you

I love the way you make me
I am drawn to the emotion you make me feel
Scared to live alone
I am afraid to exist without you
Pressured into depression
Your influence causes me to feel low and helpless
From the walls inside this home
I am trapped in this negative environment
If love is negative
Although we call it love, it feels toxic
You've filled me almost full
You have almost completely consumed me
Tyrannous
Your behavior is cruel and oppressive
Smash the windows
I want to break free from this situation
Underneath your rule
I feel controlled by you
I tried to turn away and
I attempted to distance myself from you
Always fell right back
But I kept returning to your influence
But it gets hard to do
However, it becomes difficult to continue this cycle of leaving and returning
When you're standing on my track
Because you constantly block my path
I'll learn to live the way
I will attempt to adjust my behavior to fit your expectations
You'd always want me to
So that I can please you and avoid your negative influence
Complain and hate
I will adopt your negative outlook and behavior
So I can grow down into you
In an attempt to fit in and gain your approval, I will adopt your toxic behavior and become like you
