Rush - Red Lenses 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!
