I stood in the pouring rain oblivious to the cold I walked off the edge of the world while looking for my soul You know, you should've been there in the place where Heaven met Hell To stand and watch the crosses burn the day the earth trembled & the gates fell I heard prayers for the dying Benedictions for the dead Confessions of lost souls pulling at the threads I watched the coming darkness with dry, dusty eyes as labyrinths were built before me and filled with truths and lies Innocence was placed on one path deceit on another Each made their way toward battle with the other I observed from the tower a fight presumably to the death as thorns from the rose I held pierced my tender flesh Priests in robes of scarlet Servants in black silk Human candles in the temple chained in place with guilt Orange clouds surround purple moons monoliths in the mist Rain the color of blood in a realm where stars cease to exist In a moment it was gone I did not see the ending Still I search for my soul the journey is never ending Dark dreams haunt me time after time I am left with the realization that indeed the ghosts are mine Regardless of who won the battle Victimizer or victim It's all part of the game Just information for the system ~~~~ |
