For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they crash upon the blood stained floor? For thou wilt struck thine enemy Vile and desecrated Laced in low To rise atop the jet black stair and to live alive forevermore Raining down from the darkened skies Is beauty beyond beauty beyond shining Down from the fisherman’s sky is indifference Vile and desecrated To be a living hell To rise atop the jet black stair and to how one can ever tell For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they fly from metal cold and lifeless Lift me up above thine enemy Anguished and griefed Craft is the plague To rise atop the jet black stair and again to how one can ever tell Falling sick upon a collapsed journey Is my love, for where art thou? Fallen to thine enemy? You promised You promised but how can one truly ever tell?

The Scarlet Ribbon
For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they crash upon the blood stained floor? For thou wilt struck thine enemy Vile and desecrated Laced in low To rise atop the jet black stair and to live alive forevermore Raining down from the darkened skies Is beauty beyond beauty beyond shining Down from the fisherman’s sky is indifference Vile and desecrated To be a living hell To rise atop the jet black stair and to how one can ever tell For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they fly from metal cold and lifeless Lift me up above thine enemy Anguished and griefed Craft is the plague To rise atop the jet black stair and again to how one can ever tell Falling sick upon a collapsed journey Is my love, for where art thou? Fallen to thine enemy? You promised You promised but how can one truly ever tell?
