Bloodshot
Red Remains Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I bet you don't know what you're doing
I bet your mind is blown away
You can't handle the fight
You can't take the fire in my eyes
Am I too much to take

You can't hide from the speed of my tongue
I bet you're reeling from the flavor of my smile

I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in red
But you can't handle my speed
You can't handle my fire
I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in

I bet you think you got me figured out
I bet you want to tame me
They all do, little do you know
You're under my thumb
Bending to my wants

You can't hide from the speed of my tongue
I bet you're reeling from the flavor of my smile

I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in red
But you can't handle my speed
You can't handle my fire
I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in red

I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in red
But you can't handle my speed
You can't handle my fire
I may be temper heavy
I may be hell in red





I may be hell in... red
