I walked in the shadows 'Neath an azure midnight sky I walked in the shadows To abscond a life not my own I walked in the night This life I hate
Destroy this life, the life I hate Return me to the womb Thy crystalline will Has finally shattered As spring rain paints itself On the canvas of youth The canvas of youth It's snowing still in my heart
Will I ride the summer winds Or dance upon [the] crimson horizon Will I find Paradise in Hell? If I go If I go deep into the woods If I go If I go to this cabin
As scarlet flowers lust for the dew of morning And infants nurse on the nectar of motherhood Of motherhood As prophets of ruin wield their swords of wisdom And battle forth towards a brighter dawn
