Springtime Red Tulips

She was raised in a house full of bruises Stained with whiskey and blood And her lips were colored like springtime red tulips Her eyes were colored like mud Colored like mud She ran away when she was 13 Her mother followed so they could stop bleeding The daughter's father passed 2 years there after Her mother said "You're alright with me" "Well honey, you're okay, breathe" "Honey, you're alright right here with me" "Honey, you're okay, breathe" "Honey, you're alright right here with me" The two spent their time there laughing and singing Till winter struck everything still The daughter fell broke and her mother fell ill And now she's singing with the whippoorwills The whipoorwhills And I saw her dancing, her face to the ground Her eyes the color of honey brown And I fell in love by the second a tear shed Her lips of springtime tulip red And I said "Honey, you're okay, breathe" "Honey, you're alright right here with me" "Honey, you're okay, breathe" "Honey, you're alright right here with me" (Yeah) I'm sorry if I'm mean But that's just my father in me I hate to be cruel But I was raised on blood, whiskey and fools My eyes, they're bloodshot, your words hurt more than I would thought And high hopes, they're cut down, how can I breathe when you're not around These roads, are hallow, I can't go back to my hometown My heart, swallowed, I guess that you are my home now Well honey, you're okay, breathe Honey, you're alright right here with me Well honey, you're okay, breathe Honey, you're alright right here with me RIght here with me, just breathe
