Red Marker

[Verse 1]
One, two, three, four
Why do we have to go to war?
Five, four, three
I feel peace when I'm free
Wandering around
There's lichen on my castle walls
Rotting by my waterfalls
So kiss my inner bouncy ball

[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, I wrote this story with red marker
And I'm in my element
Even though the skies are getting darker

[Chorus]
The apples on my black dirt are black
I'm rotting and I'm never coming back
The way you knew me then
Chickens in a pen
Danger, don't get starry in the eyes
Too blind to see this purple invisible paradise
I think we might be in
When the story won't begin, I just breathe in

[Verse 2]
I tried this thing the other night
When fear and sadness held me tight
I cleared my mind and tried to draw
The hills of my delight
Rolling around
I know that we're all scared right now
The pinch before the fertile plow
We'll plow the world anew somehow

[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, I wrote this story with red marker
And we're in our element
Even though the skies are getting darker

[Chorus]
The apples on my black dirt are black
I'm rotting and I'm never coming back
The way you knew me then
Chickens in a pen
Danger, don't get starry in the eyes
Too blind to see this purple invisible paradise
I think we might be in
When the story won't begin, I just breathe in
Danger, don't get starry in the eyes
Too blind to see this purple invisible paradise
I think we might be in
When the story won't begin, I just breathe in
