Forever longing for a sign of life, a bringer of life...

I have seen ten roses bleed,
seen new petals fall,
I have felt my soul tear.
I have felt nothing at all.
Watched what was vibrant
fade as shadows fall.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen ten liars love,
seen two lovers lie,
seen youth, blinded, smiling.
I have seen deceit handed down.
From the highest height, below the lowly.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen beasts bathed in glory,
tread across the angels as they crawl.
Take it all away.
Regress to nothing.
Can someone please take
these images from my mind?

Once again I stand in the purity of innocent astonishment cradled by endless appreciation. A Fire Inside amazes me. I don't know how God could have created such beauty... they are the epitome of perfection among this world, and knowing there are beings like them that exist in this world gives me the hope that gets me by each new day I'm still alive. This song, also a masterpiece by them, reminds me of something pretty:

A chilling silence.
A world of violets.
My breath materialized again.
Immaculate.
Inanimate.
A comfort cutting time I see... a string of white lights.
Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life, a bringer of light.
Forever wandering through a world of violets.
Ice everlasting.
A full moon casting a purple veil enshrouding all.
I perambulate, somnambulant.
A solace piercing time I see... a string of white lights.
If only for one night, if only for one night, if only for one night remember.
If only for one night, if only for one night, if only for one night together.

And I do believe I've fallen in love all over again.

Goodnight.
