I watch as my world turns red,
the price of withholding such rage.
I let my anger burn until I am dead.

Lay down in your silk white bed,
time caresses then cripples with old age.
I watch as my world turns red.

Swallow the lies that I was fed,
causing a wound that you cannot bandage.
I let my anger burn until I am dead.

You care little for those who have bled,
satisfied with a kingdom left in carnage.
I watch as my world turns red.

Even after everything that was said,
you still cling on to your false courage.
I let my anger burn until I am dead.

Still refusing to let your rotten skin shed,
simply content in your tainted marriage.
I watch as my world turns red,
I let my anger burn until I am dead.
