=== Lyrics ===
In the back room
I see me creep through
I think I’m drunk and I do not know you
I stumble slowly and someone holds me
We hit the ground and before I know
You’re cut
But you’re not bleeding
As I’m retreating
I hear the sound of a weak heart beating
I stumble slowly and no one holds me
I hit the ground and now I know
I’m cut
How could you know?
I could be so, I could be so cold
When a light went out I lost myself and all control
How could you know, I could be so
I could be so cold
So this black vision
Cuts with precision
Every memory a perfect incision
I stand here motionless
You watch the child confess
With red heart, red hands and red eyes confess
It was my mistake…
With red heart and red hands and red eyes confess now
With red heart and red hands and red eyes confess
It was my mistake…
