Blood Red

Summer, summer again
Innocense lies in its bed
Believing all I said
Written in blood red

Calling me, calling out my name
The reverie of my own self-appointed shame
Filling up my head
Screaming out blood red

This is the curtain call for my life as I know it
This is the end of my denial

Shifting ground underneath my feet
Sinking deep into the sandy beach
Dreaming while I bled
Visions in blood red

Running now into the meadow
Up the hill and into the grass I go
And down to the creek bed
Where it runs blood red

This is the moment to unveil your emotion
Come on and open up your eyes

It never appears, no mark for your fears
But I know it waits for me to come near
The Angels take flight as Demons rush in
And Anna Lee cries to see how they grin

In blood red
All smiling in blood red
