Tonight the moon is rose in a crimson red
But roses gotta wither so I'll live forever instead
And now I can't get rid of all of these storms in my head
Bring on the hemorrhaging
I guess I'll live inside your memory
Another distorted story that ignore the deceased
I'll live inside of a castle, pray I'm never released
I'd rather kick it in the dungeon 'cause I'm that kind of beast
I'll bet my heart on the cards because I trust me the least (let it die)
Pressure mounting, but I'm doomed without it
Precious moments zooming by, don't doubt it
Rest is ephemeral, scream and shout it
The best don't sleep, I was all about it (let it die)
But reaping keeps you tucked in the shadows
This creeping feeling of identity battles
Closing in on every side of me
Red tomorrow, red today
Dread, sorrow, can't turn away (can't turn back)
Time, I'll always be a prisoner to my ambition
As petals fly, I'll dance your tune
But hold your breath, guess who's running the show?
And when this red runs black I'll ask you
Was I everything you imagined?
When my time's finally up, the sun's falling down
I'll turn to stone again
Every day's a fight to stay relevant
And it cannot last, so relish it
Our planet's vast, but this hole's a ditch
Toss out the past, and strike it rich
Nobody asked if the mask is not the right fit
In this fiction, it's no disaster in spite of it
I stay curious, what comes after it?
It's mysterious and yet I exist
Hold on, stay beautiful, stay young
There are blades to be swung yet
Rising soon, regard the moon
Reflected in the crimson tone tonight
Red tomorrow, red today
Dread, sorrow, can't turn away (can't turn back)
Time, I'll always be a prisoner to my ambition
As petals fly, I'll dance your tune
But hold your breath, guess who's owning the throne?
So come alive now
Once again, so I can chase you down
We are five minutes away from
The end, it's come
Continue slashing forward, I must
Or else just fade away
♪
There's a drive to strive inside all of us
A never-ending ouroboros
It can weigh you down and it's all because
Yeah, thinking that reaping is all there was (it is now)
I gotta find a way and escape how fate
Has a funny way of shaking the weak down
Am I gonna peak now? Future lookin' bleak, wow
Somehow incomplete after all (can't turn back)
Time, I'll always be a prisoner to my ambition
As petals fly, I'll dance your tune
Don't hold your breath for me
And when this red runs black I'll ask you
Was I everything you imagined?
When my time's finally up, the sun's falling down
I'll turn to stone again, so come alive now
Once again, so I can chase you down
We are five seconds away from
The end, it's come
From here on out, it's only just me and this bloodlust
I'd rather just fade away
