My soul is painted
crimson by your fire
creeping along an isolated
highway rocking me
to sleep in the visage
of the moon’s dance.
There is a blemish
forming inside your soul.
Its rage towers
over me when I’m lost
to red skies
burning up my heart.
My chariot awaits
to carry me away
from ashes and dust
your corpse has become.
For it was your fire
leading you down which holds you.
For it is now up to God
to carry your withered
spirit up into the clouds
and through His gates
in Heaven.
