\nBlue or red, just like black<\/p>\n

Night cold fell hard again, we\u2019re all alone
\nSkin wet and chilled to the bone
\nSituation kinda turned but no one ran
\nOh yeah
\nSome things slipped, but not badly out of hand<\/p>\n

Hell, blue or red, no tears for the river
\nPush or a shove, it don’t mean much
\nJokers n clowns don\u2019t mean jack, no match for a fire
\nWe\u2019re still cold as ice, under a dead man’s touch
\nHis whispers or screams don’t change a thing
\nWon’t bring us back
\nBlue or red, just like black
\nOh yeah
\nBlue or red, just like black<\/p>\n

Damn blind, they still can\u2019t see
\nTruth, lies, and in between
\nWrongs can’t be undone
\n\u201cOh\u201d never slips from the tip of their tongues<\/p>\n

Hell, blue or red, no tears for the river
\nPush or a shove, it don’t mean much
\nJokers n clowns don\u2019t mean jack, no match for a fire
\nWe\u2019re still cold as ice, under a dead man’s touch
\nHis whispers or screams don’t change a thing
\nWon’t bring us back
\nBlue or red, just like black
\nOh yeah
\nBlue or red, just like black<\/p>\n
