SCARLET SKY
WRITTEN BY

2022
THE TIME LIES BROKEN
THE WORLD IS STILL
WAITING FOR A SAVIOUR
A HERO A SAGE
TO PICK UP THE PIECES
TO TURN THE PAGE
DEEPLY DISENGAGED
IN A WAY
A STATE OF PERPETUAL ANCHORAGE
I CAN'T MOVE MY FEET
AN ILL WIND KEEPS BLOWING
I'M AFRAID TO BREATHE
FEEL A DRAW
PULLING ME AWAY
BUT TO WHAT TO WHERE
WILL MY ABSENCE CAUSE A VOID
A SCARLET SKY
BLEEDING OUT TO BLACK
BLOTTING OUT THE STARS
STAINING THE MOON
MAKING THIS JOURNEY
END TOO SOON
TEARING THE FABRIC
BARING THE SOUL
A FRIGHTENING ATTEMPT
AT CONTROL
HOLDING YOU UNDER
NEVER LET YOU GO
KEEPING YOU FROM LIGHT
LIKE THE WALL
YOUR UP AGAINST
YOU CAN'T REASON WITH
FALLING ON DEAFENED EARS
WHEN WILL YOU SEE
TEAM UP WITH ME
FIGHT ALL THIS MADNESS
CLOAK OURSELVES IN BADNESS
FOR A TIME
WE GO SEARCHING ON A LINE
NEVER KNOW IF WE'LL FIND
PEACE OR A FIGHT
ONE DAY WE MIGHT
LOOK BACK TO THIS TIME
THAT LIES BROKEN
WAITING JUST FOR THIS
A SCARLET SKY
BLEEDING OUT TO BLACK
BLOTTING OUT THE STARS
STAINING THE MOON
EVERYWHERE YOU GO
YOU SEE THE SAME
AS THEY GO BACK AND FORTH
SHIFTING THE BLAME
EVERYWHERE YOU GO YOU SEE
NOBODY WANTS TO BEND ANYMORE
AGAINST THEIR WILL
THESE FEELINGS
NEVER STOP
NEVER WILL
