Lyrics

must be a reason, couldn?t say why
your voice haunts me like a lullaby
thought i heard you in the atmosphere
mockingbirds are everywhere

no i?m fine
i?m just fine

but it?s a lovely day for burning
debts i know i cannot pay
a red letter day

now i?m your picture-perfect hollywood square
lined in velvet, gold leaf in my hair
you frame and mount me like your personal best
give me something to get off my chest

don?t untie me
i?m going in style

a small but efficient pyre
ought to do the trick, you say
get your red shoes, your best dress
it?s time for?

turning, month after month
you can?t avoid the calendar
won?t be the same

looking noble at the edge of the cliff
three hundred dollar sheets to the wind
mark my forehead with an avalanche
say you gotta sacrifice me before i sin again
and again?

do you think civilization
rests on how you make them pay
if life fails to hold the mirror
mocking birds will have their say
on this red letter day
red letter day
