Crimson Moonlight

There is blood in the moonlight A broken bottle on the trail Rust upon the battered sails And a ghost by the basement rails A pity we cant analyze The evidence that led us here And I cant read your mind honey I am not a gifted seer Wonders pass me by sweet child Into the empty air i stare As you once lay in the shadows An empty hollow now is clear Leaving these chills in my veins Yeah my heart is forever stained Should I go should I remain Burn down the weeping willow As I can't live in fear Of what shall be done Cause in due time Empty prayers no longer keep love there Yeah cool down lay by the ocean Maybe your fragile fingers Will run through my wavy hair I know these are lost memories We alone seem to care I met the son of god in a dream Yet it was a woman and she was mean Said son your living a lie it seems If you live in the past thinking of dead queens Yet I know I am not the only one Running from the bullets of your gun Bathe me in crimson oh holy one Maybe then I'll remember just where I am from Cause I hear them thundering drums Down in the valley these echoing thumps The trumpets of war no I am not done I'm in a war of my own Only when I see you will I know I have won Burn down the weeping willow As I can't live in fear Of what shall be done Cause in due time Empty prayers no longer keep love there Yeah cool down lay by the ocean Maybe your fragile fingers Will run through my wavy hair I know these are lost memories We alone seem to care Many a man has lost his tongue To the weight of the world Or the knife of a loved one Rarely do we worry of our enemies They try to kill us yet only physically But the words of those you call family Can shrink you below Leave you on your knees Until the end of our days So help me please I will question my fate alongside harpies Those that made us blind for mere fun No child is an experiment Nor should they be on the run For these whispers in the night that shake my bones Are reminders that there are many without a home So we will be at peace at least for the time For soon we shall turn to ashes and forget why We were questioning our existence to begin with Persistence is key Healing is forgiveness Burn down the weeping willow As I can't live in fear Of what shall be done Cause in due time Empty prayers no longer keep love there Yeah cool down lay by the ocean Maybe your fragile fingers Will run through my wavy hair I know these are lost memories We alone seem to care
