Warm Thoughts of Warfare

Waking hour of scarlet warfare, I will fight for you
This blood will wash away
Their skin will crack and peel in a thousand fires
We will break every bone, we will crush them all to dust

An attempt so frivolous to save your life
Watch you hit the sanguine ground like autumn leaves
With each nail driven you drift away
This somber burial is a calamity

Rise from your casket and kiss new breath from me

To those who can't behold your fading moonlight beauty
Radiating from your precious eyes, a tender gaze
Never witnessing an instance when you held time still forever in your matron hands

Rise from your casket revive this effigy

New life will feed your starving lungs
New blood will surge through collapsed arteries
And I'll hold you through it all
