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
