Red Letter Day

A red letter day (sometimes hyphenated as red-letter day) is any day of special significance or opportunity. Its roots are in classical antiquity; for instance, important days are indicated in red in a calendar dating from the Roman Republic (509–27 BC).In medieval manuscripts, initial capitals and highlighted words (known as rubrics) were written in red ink. The practice was continued after the invention of the printing press, including in Catholic liturgical books. Many calendars still indicate special dates, festivals and holidays in red instead of black. In the universities of the UK, scarlet days are when doctors may wear their scarlet 'festal' or full dress gowns instead of their undress ('black') gown.

When it all falls down, I'd rather be
Anywhere but here
When it all falls down, I'd rather be
Anywhere but here
As you learn to die like a man
With your penance over

Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My plans tonight
Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My hands are tied

When it all falls down, I'd rather be
Anywhere but here
And my days feel like weeks now again
Any luck and I'm way down, now
All the mercy promised for me
Like a burning star
You drive me crazy with the hazy recollection of
You drive me crazy with the hazy recollection of

Stuck in a rut
While I fixate on the features of your cut, spilling blood
While I scream about it, scream about you

Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My plans tonight
Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My hands are tied behind my
Now, you wanna do this right now
You wanna see me in my rags tonight
Straitjacket tight
Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
Straitjacket tight

My throat is feeling sore
Give what I can't afford for you
Don't walk on out the door
There's so much here at home for you
For you

Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My plans tonight
Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
My hands are tied behind my
Now, you wanna do this right now
You wanna see me in my rags tonight
Straitjacket tight
Now, you wanna talk about this now
You wanna see me in the crowd tonight
Straitjacket tight

Well, are you satisfied?
You robbed me of my eyes
I know you're coming over now

Your straitjacket will never fit
Tethered in this
The padded walls around you closing in
Deeper into an abyss (as you learn to die like the man that you are)
Your straitjacket will never fit
Tethered in this (does my name still follow you there, in the dark)
The padded walls around you closing in (I'm way down)
