Scarlet Redemption

[Verse]
Wild red curls like fire's dance
She walked alone through thorny chance
Bootsteps echoed in the moonlit dirt
A shadow followed bound to hurt
[Chorus]
Scarlet maiden tangled in the fight
A shadow loomed blacker than the night
But thunder rolled with a soldier's hand
A savior strode to take a stand
[Verse 2]
Behind her crept a past she fled
Her ex's whispers filled with dread
A rusty truck hid out in the pine
Watching her every inch of the line
[Chorus]
Scarlet maiden tangled in the fight
A shadow loomed blacker than the night
But thunder rolled with a soldier's hand
A savior strode to take a stand
[Bridge]
Steel strings snap under silver skies
Boot heels ring and the violence flies
The soldier speaks but in his eyes
The scars of war tell no lies
[Verse 3]
Red dirt fury her pulse did pound
As two lives clashed on battle ground
And when the dust had cleared the sight
A soldier stayed to set it right
