Red Headed Stepchild Lyrics - Golden Smog

Hello darkness, come on in 

Let me light a candle 

Imaginations runnin' 

Hands start to tremble 

Knows enough to know not to believe 

What is real and what it seems to be 

Knows what's keepin' him from bein' free 

Right outside your door 

Don't run away 

Red headed stepchild 

I can only promise 

You won't find your way back home 

In another room there's laughin' 

Entertainin' strangers 

Walls in there, don't breathe no more 

But they're keepin' out some angels 

Laughed so much, he almost cried 

Stranger offers him a ride 

City blocks roll on by 

Never comin' back 

Don't run away 

Red headed stepchild 

I can only promise 

You won't find your way back home 

Take your pictures off my wall 

I hate to look at strangers 

Then it's burnin' be forewarned 

Keep me out of danger 

Knows enough to know not to believe 

What is real and what it seems to be 

Knows what's keepin' him from bein' free 

Right outside your door 

Don't run away 

Red headed stepchild 

I can only promise 

You won't find your way back home 

Don't run away 

Red headed stepchild 

I can only promise 

You won't find your way back home 

Find your way back home
