Rivers fading into the sun.
Defying logic as they turn red.
Picturesque mountains lose their glory
As anger turns the snow rosey.

And the world turns to blood.

Visions of what used to be,
And what could have been.
Replaced with the orange glow of the fire,
As the devil rakes the coals of sleep.

And the world turns to blood.

Side by side captured forever in time,
As the pages turn forward and back.
Memories no longer bring the smiles,
Just fear as the avalanches crush life.

And the world turns to blood.

The daggers of your words
Rip and burn their way into the night
Never to feel the warmth of your arms.
You say you don't feel that way.

And the world turns to blood.

Can I ever remove the ink,
From my brain and cleanse it all.
As time moves forward,
And my heart stands still.

And the world turns to blood
