This is track #3 from our new album, Drama Queen. When a boy with a temper falls in love with a girl who adores male attention, things can get crazy. One thoughtless, split second decision can change a life forever.

lyrics

One Red Minute

Verse #1

He was a city boy, slipped out of Cleveland
one step ahead of the law.
Finally made his way out to LA,
was gonna be a rock star.
And he played:

She was a Cali girl, hotter than the Mojave sands,
with kisses that tasted like stars.
He was a jealous boy, she loved attention
'till one night it went too far.

Chorus

And in one red minute, his world came crashing down.
And in one red minute, crashing down, crashing down
And in one red minute, his world came crashing down.
And in one red minute, crashing down, crashing down

Verse #2

Now he lives in hell, in a 10 foot cell.
Alone with his memories all day.
No life behind him, with nothing left ahead.
Just remembering the times when he played,
And he played:

He always sees it, that one red minute,
every time he closes his eyes.
Her look of passion, turned into fear,
she saw the weapon in his hands

Repeat Chorus
