I have walked through the valley
I have seen the tears of doubt
calls from above drag me down
and all I want is out
The Scarlet Design has snared me
it's flagrant thoughts have shown
that even though i can escape
I don't want to go home.
For as long as i can remember
I have sought to kill the pain.
the scarlet design is immortal
and it keeps me, unfortunately, sane.
I have seen The Scarlet Design
through the window of my tears
the blood that drips from my hands
to chase away my fears.
I don't know what's to come
but I picture it to be
something cold, dark, and wrong
that I will have to see.
Beyond the valley's shadow
scarlet marks do trail
along that path of darkness
along the road to hell.
