Red
Embrace the Crimson Truth: The 69 Eyes' Red Reveals the Real
Lyrics
Hopefully you'll get what you wanted
Expressing hope that the listener will achieve their desires.
And hopefully you'll get what you need
Expressing hope that the listener will obtain what is essential for them.
The taste of blood is always lonely
The experience of tasting blood is isolating and intense.
Cuts you like a heart of steel
Comparing the impact of a broken situation to a heart made of steel, implying a harsh and cutting effect.
And hopefully you'll get what you wanted
Reiteration of the hope that the listener's desires will be fulfilled.
And hopefully you'll get what you need
Reiteration of the hope that the listener will get what is necessary for them.
