The look on his face I knew he was dead It was filled With blood of red That made me sink Into the thoughts of rose pink Onto the brink of this darkened world That left the dreams unfurled And the storms had twirled My brain had burned With this darkened wretched world
The mind of this person had been "burned" or marked and changed forever. Witnessing the death of someone during war changed him forever. He will never be the same witnessing that blood of red. Realizing the world was plagued and his mind had "burned" along with the dark and wretched world.
