For everyone waiting for the red carpet show in 2026. Lyrics:
Flashbulbs burn my eyes
Cheap perfume and crooked ties
Something drips between the tiles
Who’s smiling through these crocodile trials
Red rope
Plastic smiles
Gold teeth
Dead dial tones
I see a stain by your stilettos
Tell me what soaked through those stones
Is that blood on the red carpet
Or just another color you spin
You walk right through like you own it
Like the mess ain’t staining your skin
Is that blood on the red carpet
Or just the price of getting in
Every step leaves darker footprints
Every laugh just covers the sin
Backstage mirrors
Cracked and clouded
Names etched where the glass gave in
You toast deals in private corners
Something hungry underneath that grin
Velvet ropes feel like tourniquets
Tight around your guilty crowd
Hear a scream cut through the small talk
But the DJ just turns it loud (too loud)
Is that blood on the red carpet
Or just another color you spin
You walk right through like you own it
Like the mess ain’t staining your skin
Is that blood on the red carpet
Or just the price of getting in
Every step leaves darker footprints
Every laugh just covers the sin
You say
“It’s only makeup”
But it never really dries
Running down your stories
Pooling under all your lies
You say
“It’s just reflection”
But I see it on your hands
Every photo
Every handshake
Dripping on your precious plans
Is that blood on the red carpet
Or just another color you spin
You walk right through like you own it
Like the mess ain’t staining your skin
Is that blood on the red carpet
Tell me
Do you feel it yet
Every light flash
Every secret
Stepping through a crime you forget
