• Shallow waters at my feet
    A wilted rose in my hand
    Tears of blood roll down my face
    Hit the ground as ruby sand

    Shadows break upon my steps
    Dancing atop crimson stone
    Whimsical songs of the beast
    A shaken, broken baritone

    Sunlight glistens upon my skin
    White and pale as the moon
    Lights my soul from within
    As doves of winter stay to swoon

    Harps of gold parade my path
    As the light beckons my way
    Shadows long forgotten now
    Of a once much darker day

    Ravens sing songs of old
    Sinful lyrics of wistful love
    A hollow muse who now knows hope
    As he holds the silver dove

    A broken siren who sings of pain
    Holding a feather of silver light
    Carried forth by the raven's song
    Finds the dove on a starless night

    A hollow muse, a broken siren
    In a starless night they stand
    The raven singing their song of love
    Their souls shining upon crimson sand

    The starless sky now shines anew
    The moon now glowing bright
    The raven upon the harps of gold
    Now sing of love's new light
