Oh, Vibrant Shades Of Red

Oh, vibrant shades of red

My wishes echo down the block

Across the blacktop streets

But, why leave now its only 9 o'clock



The people screaming

Cars are honking their horns



And the windows aren't even half way down



But, I can hear them yawning

And I can hear them crawling now



Oh, vibrant shades of red

These images are somewhat plain

Upon deserted roads

But, why leave now, it's only rain



I see the mud collecting

And street lights flickering



And the windows aren't even half way down



But, I can hear the radios stopping

And the bodies falling now



Oh, vibrant shades of red

Oh, vibrant shades of white

Would you care to join me again?

On our annual October night



Oh, vibrant shades of red

Our design is on parade

Along all the sidewalks

But, why leave now, we haven't failed yet



I hear the motors running

I see the hall lights turning on



And the windows aren't even half way down



But, I can see them burning

And I can see them singing

I just wish I wasn't dreaming

Just wish I wasn't dreaming aloud
