Orange clouds, Behind them a blue sky As the sun sets below us The bell tower rings twice
As the town gathers their belongings And sets off now to bed I'll stay up many hours more The wicked need no rest
The steeps of the buildings Loom silent above my hood A long cape trailing behind me, I tip-toe away, fingers dripping in blood
I didn't mean to do so much wrong, I didn't want no harm or damage They were just a few small rocks, Placed before her horse drawn carriage
She didn't deserve such a tragic end, She lived her life so much better than I And yet still she crossed my path And mine were the only eyes to watch her die
Red clouds, Behind them the sky turns purple I'll never return home again Every step another towards that looming inferno
