Red Coat (2012 Version)
[Chorus]
Look I found her
Red Coat
Look I found her
[Verse 1: Sincerely Collins]
I'm so sick of wondering why
Waking up in these cold sweats
Wishing I would just die
And why the fuck I don't know yet
What happened, what happened
To the girl who was wearing this red coat
She came then, she went now
I don't even really know what I live for
But I'm living, I'm living
And this life gets so vivid
When the beast in you becomes vicious
'Cause the woman that you love goes missing
Now all I got is this red coat
Photographs and this red wine
Memories of what used to be
And they visit me around bed-time
And I hate that, but I love that
All I want is our love back
One chance in that time machine
Don't tell me that, 'cause I'd run back
Mission Impossible, tryin' find where you went to
So many obstacles, can't define what I went through
I tried to talk to Dad
But I can't do that, because he ain't the same
And your brother just told me
Think he might know the man to blame
And I'll kill him when I see him, if I don't kill me first
But do I really wanna do that?
'Cause it might make things worse
[Chorus With Beat]
[Verse 2: Sincerely Collins]
20 years, no success
That would drive you crazy
What happened to my liberty
Jagged thoughts and a 9 millimeter pistol
That'll put me out of misery
But if suicide is a trip to Hell
And Hell is where i'm at now
Then why the Hell would I go to Hell
Hell would shoot me just to get out
And I trip around that same old block, the pain won't stop
Tryin' fight these demons, and remain on top
But I take that walk, in the search for your love again
Flashbacks become nightmares, I see all the blood that you're covered in
I won't love again, I want love again, I want love again, I want love again
It ain't fair for a young boy, to just lose the woman that mothered him
He lays back on that sofa, alcohol just smothers him
God helped rub it in
You know you're in trouble when, you're too afraid to feel (Damn)
The cuts don't heal, startin' to bleed
I fall into a dream, where I see your eyes
And I see your smile, and we both say , "Hi"
"I ain't seen you in a while"
And you hug me, and I squeeze you, and I kiss you
I hand you your red coat, and I tell you that I missed you
Seems life ain't just a dream, it's all about what you take up
Momma's back in my life again, it feels so good then I wake up
Look I found her...
Damn
[Chorus With Beat]
