Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Into: ---  2x
I've  been down,  I've been out
 I did it all on my own
 Seems growing  up
 Didn't take  long
 I feel strange,  I feel good
 I feel better with  you
 You've  changed, you  should
 Cause I think I did  too
 Made  my mistakes
 I did a few things right
 But it will  take what it will  take
 Baby, that's life
 You cannot  change what you do  not own
 Everybody knows
 But if you  live deep and love  strong
 You get pretty damn close
 It moves fast  and it scares  me
I  close my eyes,  oh but I  still see
 I'm fading in  and out
 What are you supposed to do save  me now
 From all of this danger you don't  know how
 And I'll find my way out
 When I'm in  the red
 Listening to strangers inside  my head
 The darkening angels beneath  the bed
 I still see everything  you said
 Crimson in red
---  2x
I shake  and I smile
 Cause you said
 Baby girl, it may take a while, but take the good from the bad
 And never minds are never sure, so never leave them wanting more
 What are you waiting for
 How you love is who you are
I  dive  in and I sink in
 And I find new colors to think in
I'm fading  in and out
 What are you supposed to do save me know
 From all of this danger you don't know how
 And I'll find my way out
 When I'm in the red
 Listening to strangers inside my head
 The darkening angels beneath the bed
 I still see everything you said
 Crimson in red
In the distance  is a line defining where I've been
 Rhe state I'm in
 And ever since it began to slip from my two hands I've been
 Taunting fires, touching wires, been believing liars
 Everything they said
 Painted in red
 Painted in red
 Painted in red
I am  fading  in and out
 What are you gonna do save me know
 From all of this danger you don't know how
 I'll find my way out
 When I'm in the red
 Listening to strangers inside my head
 The darkening angels beneath the bed
 I still see what you said
What  are  you gonna do
 No way for you to save me
 What are you gonna do
 Everything that you gave me
 Is painted in red
