Crimson was our start
Roots of red burst from the dark
Though the years are spent and gone
Still this scarlet song lives on
 
As breath from black is born
Back to nothingness we'll go
In between, caught in the dawn
Still this scarlet song lives on
 
With goodbyes, I'll turn to clovers
And pray that time fade that fire
And with luck I'll rest in gray
And yet the smiles will always smolder
Though the wounds may fade to gray
 
Our lives are drawn in crimson light
Forever
I'll stay here for the night
Forever
No escaping memory's burning ties
Forever
Nostalgia defies time
 
Some find comfort in fate
I would sink under the weight
But no escape, the web is spun
And this scarlet song lives on
 
Our lives are drawn in crimson light
Forever
I'll stay here for the night
Forever
No escaping memory's burning ties
Forever
Nostalgia defies time
Forever, the end of time (Crimson, fire, fire)
The end of time (Crimson, fire, fire)
 
Our lives are drawn in crimson light
Forever
I'll stay here for the night
Forever
No escaping memory's burning ties
Forever
Nostalgia defies time
