Scarlet

The waves of noise ripple, memories fading away
I’ve counted my wishes countless times, still trembling
Shaking the darkness, it felt like a song of hope
When I pray, it slips away like sand

I’ve always known, secretly breathing thoughts
Touching the rusted steel
Meaningless, endlessly, it keeps spinning

Even if the world is torn apart
I won’t let go of your hand
Even if the twisted control decays
I’ll call your name
Even if it’s not a beautiful eye

Drenched in pulsing loneliness
Those who fear
Must have a place to return to

Before I’m thrown into the vanishing universe
Deep in my cold eyes
I’m crying, confused, who are you?

Even if my screams are drowned out
My lips are still searching
Even if the answers are overturned
I’m holding on
Even if it’s just a faint piece of you

Wrapped in crimson, many layers
We’ll meet at the end
Even if I sleep, I’ll be in your arms again

Even if the world is torn apart
I won’t let go of your hand
Even if the twisted control decays
I’ll call your name
Even if it’s not a beautiful eye

With every breath I take
I’m longing for you
No matter where I get lost
Just once more.
