Red Star (Acoustic)

(专辑： Unplugged - 2022)

The police high beams froze her perfect face in white glow for a while
The Politburo's on high alert, her name showed up on file
There's trouble with their war effort, she's been speaking out
Checkpoint Charlie's radioed in, she's compromised in doubt
There's trouble with their war effort, she's crossed the party line
You were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind

You were so pretty, oh, hiding out
You were so pretty, oh, hiding out
The files have been filled
The regime won't be undermined
And you were so pretty in the days you spoke your mind

Quiet now, don't make a sound
The system shut us down now, we'll find each other in the underground
She had the voice once of the people, now she's timid as a mouse
I would kiss you on the mouth in a safe house

You've come so far, don't back down now
You've come so far, don't back down now
Walk on by, don't back down now
You've come so far, you're a red star
She's a red star

So far

Tell me how did you let them in?
We were silent secret agents, but the resistance is wearing thin
Dissent is now illegal, she must pay the consequence
In this thriller mystery, baby, you are my suspense

You've come so far, don't back down now
Oh, you've come so far, don't back down now
Walk on by, don't back down now
You've come so far, you're a red star
She's a red star
She's a red star

So far, don't back down now
You've come so far, don't back down now
