The treasures I seek, the landscapes I roam Seasons have passed as a heart turned to stone Back in the day with no place to call home Sins were committed, and none to atone Mind but a playground for notions bizarre Eyes painted crimson, the sky full of scars Over the doldrums of oceans so far Sails the salvation on blood of the stars Dear friends, misfortune befell on my soul Rekindled flames of a nightmare so cold Tragedy followed, guilt swallowed me whole Innocence lost to the crimes yet untold Words but a façade that blots out the sun Drowning the sorrow, a bottle of *** Blinded by light, where to flee, where to run Dance with the death to the beat of a drum Memories but shards in this great disarray Face of betrayal unseen till this day Bitter and sombre, so hollow, so grey Sweeter than chocolate those roses of May Thus, I am undone, but please, heed my call Spare me your pity, I accept my fault Fate I have chosen was bound to my fall Stoic and narrow, my thoughts were enthralled None shall be tracing the footsteps of mine Follow the sound of the heavenly chime Choose your own path at the end of the line Jump off the rails 'fore I finish this rhyme

Roses of May
The treasures I seek, the landscapes I roam Seasons have passed as a heart turned to stone Back in the day with no place to call home Sins were committed, and none to atone Mind but a playground for notions bizarre Eyes painted crimson, the sky full of scars Over the doldrums of oceans so far Sails the salvation on blood of the stars Dear friends, misfortune befell on my soul Rekindled flames of a nightmare so cold Tragedy followed, guilt swallowed me whole Innocence lost to the crimes yet untold Words but a façade that blots out the sun Drowning the sorrow, a bottle of *** Blinded by light, where to flee, where to run Dance with the death to the beat of a drum Memories but shards in this great disarray Face of betrayal unseen till this day Bitter and sombre, so hollow, so grey Sweeter than chocolate those roses of May Thus, I am undone, but please, heed my call Spare me your pity, I accept my fault Fate I have chosen was bound to my fall Stoic and narrow, my thoughts were enthralled None shall be tracing the footsteps of mine Follow the sound of the heavenly chime Choose your own path at the end of the line Jump off the rails 'fore I finish this rhyme
Written to the melody of Nobuo Uematsu's masterpiece of a track of the same name. Consider it a tribute of sorts.
