Red Lenses by Rush Lyrics

I see red
And it hurts my head
I guess it must be something
That I read

It's the color of your heartbeat
A rising summer sun
The battle lost or won
The flash to fashion
The pulse to passion

Feels red
Inside my head
And truth is often bitter
Left unsaid
I said red, red
I'm thinking about the overhead
The underfed
Couldn't we talk about something else instead?

We've got Mars on the horizon
Says the National Midnight Star
(It's true)
What you believe is what you are
A pair of dancing shoes
The Soviets are the blues
The reds
Under your bed
Lying in the darkness
Dead ahead

And the mercury is rising
Barometer starts to fall
You know it gets to us all
The pain that is learning
And the rain that is burning

Feel red
Still... go ahead
You see black and white
And I see red
Red
Not blue
I'm thinking about the overfed
The under-read

I said...
Bled red
Thinking about what you said

Think about it
I think, I think, yeah!
