Red Mountains

When I cast aflame

Never to return again

I'm on my way

Don't know where it ends

What it holds for me

You can only know

When time tells the wind

When the old tell the young

The path is treacherous

I know

In this liminality

The dirt is my hand

Red red red mountains

In this land

Cliffs that I know

Long fall below

I'm still left ajar

I'm not here and not there

Just a spectre of bones

Draped in black hair

The path is treacherous

I know

In this liminality

The dirt is my hand

Red red red mountains

In this land

Cliffs that I know

Long fall below

Like ravens we steal

Fire from gods
