My eyes slowly close The light shimmers away It's the beginning of the journey Myriads of roads for my sins to pave The lust has fled into my dreams As a wayward storm It's the dawn of a new night Will it pass without harm The road runs like a river beneath my feet Although I am not moving an inch Only the thoughts, They dance like the tides A red looking glass unfolds fragments of life And how I became your willing wife The ghosts of my future, all answered red The moment the ring was on my finger And when you found me in an other man's bed Did they foretell you about my knight When the key turned my chastity Or was it my life destined to be dead Far away battles beneath a cloak of red satin The yearning of lust, a smouldering fire All can be dealt with, if I only wake up The night drops over the shire The ghosts of my past are carved in my sight Wolves howl to the blue moon Did I deserve this past year A lone and longing fresh bride Taking comfort with willing men When you were gone Was it your life or death I feared Do they know the end of my dreams is near Enforced by the hand of a bearded knight An answer to the sins of the bed A short thrust, the dreams fade away, The knife on the floor has turned deep red, In the light of the dawn this day
